Item 19: Roving, Belfast, Ireland
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.
