Presentation of pyrometers, developed by Edward P. Brown for measuring high temperatures of industrial processes, to the Museum of History and Technology by Minneapolis-Honeywell's Brown Instrument Division, with Richard P. Brown, the inventor's son, and Secretary Leonard Carmichael.
From back of photograph: "Examining an 1884 model, which took much of the guesswork out of steel-making nearly a century ago, are Richard P. Brown, of Philadelphia, the inventor's son, and Dr. Leonard Carmichael, Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution. On the table is a modern version having automatic control action."
