Master Craftsmen --- Visitors to the special General Motors Show at the Waldorf-Astoria are being shown the steps required in the manufacture of hardware and fittings for Fisher Body by these and other artisans in the Ternstedt exhibit. Walter L. Champoux, (left) who has been a steel engraver for 25 years, is shown cutting a door handle die. Working with him is Emil Fritz, artist, sculptor and engraver, who demonstrates how radiator ornaments and other fittings are first modeled in clay. He has 21 years’ experience behind him.
