EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Samuel Slater, often referred to as "The Father of American Manufacturers" in a unique and historical way. The image is printed on a handkerchief, adding an element of nostalgia and personal connection to the viewer. Taken in Rhode Island in 1890, the photograph captures various views around Pawtucket, including notable landmarks such as the Old Slater Mill - America's first cotton mill. Other scenes depicted include David Harley & Co Merchants Exchange Park Place and Main Street, the Old Slater Sunday School (the first Sunday School in America), and Pawtucket Falls and Bridge. Manufactured by Cranston Print Works Co. , this handkerchief serves as both a memento of American industrial history and a piece of textile art. Engraved by James Provan & Sons after a portrait by James Sullivan Lincoln, it reflects the craftsmanship involved in its creation. Samuel Slater himself was an influential figure during the Industrial Revolution era. As an industrialist and manufacturer, he played a pivotal role in establishing cotton mills in America. This print pays homage to his contributions while also showcasing important locations that shaped early American industry. With its rich historical significance and artistic appeal, this handkerchief serves as more than just fabric; it represents an era of innovation, progress, and entrepreneurial spirit that helped shape the United States into what it is today.
