Scope and Content

This is a personal scrapbook of various newspaper articles pertaining to the textile companies of Willimantic during the 1890s. Newspaper articles have all been carefully cropped and then pasted to the thin blank pages of the book. Many are pasted over a printed card featuring the name of the publication the article was found in, with a handwritten date or comment. The book itself is covered in a tan fabric with leather corners and a black printed design. The covers are worn with signs of mildew but the book itself is in useable condition.
