Item 21: Roving, Belfast, Ireland, 1903
Scope and Contents
Black and white image shows rows of roving machinery. Possibly worsted roving on the Bradford system, but that has not been clearly identified. One male worker is in view. Labeled "Warping room, factory of the famous Irish linen, Belfast, Ireland," but this is clearly roving not warping. It is not totally clear if this is linen, although it would be unlikely that the publisher mistook the location of the image. Title printed on reverse in English, French, German, Spanish, Swedish, and Russian. See Item 20, in this folder, for another copy of this image copyrighted by Underwood & Underwood. See Item 19, in this folder, for the Keystone View Company copy of this image. New York: Underwood & Underwood. 18 x 9 cm. Copy B.
Format: Stereoptic print.
