Cotton Blockade

Description:

Handwriting reads: "You should see the numbers of cotton mills along the R.R. in No. Carolina. Don't see how much longer New England can compete. Very warm. Chas." By the 1920s the Southern U.S. would overtake the North in textile production. On loan from the Kheel Center for Labor-Management Documentation & Archives
