That image caught my eye, too, Mike, for a couple reasons. I zoomed in and in to try and figure out those jigs at the foot of the workbench which look like they are for gluing the tops onto bowlbacks. Very curious contraptions.
Yes...the bi-wood bowlback staves... I had thought that was a Lyon and Healy thing, and pre-1900. If this is truly 1904 at Harmony that does reshuffle the cards quite a bit.
