Tops, a new American industry; a study in the development of the American worsted manufacture. The Arlington Mills ..
A promotional company history and technical account of worsted top-making issued by the Arlington Mills of Lawrence, Massachusetts, and printed at the Riverside Press in 1898 for the trade and investors. Halftone photographs of combing machinery and mill complexes sit beside line-drawn vignettes of ancient and medieval spinners and weavers, offering both industrial hardware silhouettes and simple figure-at-loom motifs.
