Long Beach ex-war workers forge progress in plating firm
Stan Mashburn and Dick Richardson turned hunger into a thriving business, Progressive Plating Works, forming a mass production plant on Hill Street. From a $2500 salvage-built polisher to 25 skilled workers, the outfit now processes 15 tons of cold rolled steel monthly, making brackets and fixtures for manufacturers as far as Kansas City. The firm plans a cadmium and zinc barrel line and a paint department to expand while serving defense contracts.
