1890Best.-Nr. 8Archive consists of the trade catalog art work for cloth finishing and packaging machinery built by the Parks & Woolson Machine Co. of Springfield VT. The earliest art work 1890s was executed by the Lincoln & Smith Press of Boston then the James McKinnon Co. designers engravers and electrotypers of Springfield Mass. but all the 1920s work was by the Springfield Photo-Engraving Co. which may have been their successors. The normal procedure was for the artist to take a photograph in the earlier versions a mounted studio photograph then a "blue" from a glassplate negative then a glossy black & white photo and interpret it according to instructional notation. In the earlier work this was done by painting right on the photograph. But the 1920s work the majority of the collection is painted on separate board with tissue overlay. Some of the latest versions also have photographic proofs of the printing plate made from the artwork. In the marginal notes appear the names of some of Parks & Woolson's clients for specific machines: Renfrew Manufacturing Co.; Clinton Woolen Mfg. Co.; Lebanon Woolen Mills; Woonsocket Rubber Co.; Farr Alpaca Co. The names of such machines as have titles show the inheritance from the English textile manufacturing trade: Lancashire Winder and Uxbridge Inspecting Machine or their origin in the United States: the Vermont napper or the Pennsylvania plush shear and occasionally the inventor: Baird Webster P.T. Wilson etc. Parks & Woolson themselves were fond of strange combination words to describe their own multi-stage machines: Seamlethru; Transferotor. This archive shows in great detail the changes in a wide range of machinery to finish and fold or roll cloth over a crucial period in the textile industry as well as illuminating the interpretation of a machine photograph for half-tone duplication.
