Mitchell and Kenyon: Workforce Leaving at Lunchtime (c. 1901)
 

Synopsis

Warning: screenonline full synopses contain 'spoilers' which give away key plot points. Don't read on if you don't want to know the ending!

A girl holding a basket stands next to a wooden door. The door opens and the workers come out. The workers are all elegantly-dressed men and women (not factory workers). Many of the women carry umbrellas and baskets. A van drives past. A man opens a second door to let the workers leave more quickly.
