Consumers Power Co--Gas Pipe Band comic group 7 May 1927 by Seeking Michigan
Consumers Power Company (now Consumers Energy) has a rich history of "firsts" in electric and gas power history. Established in Jackson, Michigan, the company built some of the first power lines in rural America. Here, employees march with instruments made from old pipes that same year. Perhaps the band formed to celebrate this landmark, or perhaps it was just in good fun. Either way, this iconic image captures the spirit and pride of the company's workforce.
