The dedication ceremony pictured in several images in this set was held in 1956, when the building reached its ultimate height and trees were lifted to celebrate the construction milestone. Other photographs depict the factory building after the completion of the first phase of construction. The color image is undated. The aerial photographs appear to date to 1956, though contradictory inscriptions on some copies indicate 1957 or 1966 are also possible. Only the aerial photographs are attributed to a photographer.
