Linda -- a factory in our area is credited with the first standardized broom
in the 30s, I think.  We have many images from the factory.
Contact me and we can talk about them...

Subject: seeking manufacturing info


Hello--

For an industrial history exhibition in Amsterdam, NY,  we're seeking
information on several manufacturing processes and have had little luck
in local archives or secondary publications.   Although the exhibit
focuses primarily on workers,  we're including a section on the
processes themselves.   I'm hoping someone on the list could steer me
towards explanations and/or photographs of the following:  broommaking
in a factory setting   and knitted underwear manufacturing,  both from
the late 19th and early 20th centuries.   Any help would be
appreciated!  Please feel free to respond off list.
