National Straw Works
Bring a little Westborough home.
Unframed Matte Poster · 11 × 14 inches
After the day's comings and goings, a few minutes at home can include looking a little more closely at the wall picture. Horse-drawn freight and railway tracks surround Westborough's National Straw Works, leaving several small working details to notice around the factory buildings.
An advertising lithograph published between 1880 and 1883 depicts Westborough's National Straw Works. Horse-drawn freight and railroad tracks surround the factory buildings. Preserved by the Huntington, the image records how an industrial business presented its workplace, linking local manufacturing with the routes that served it.
The factory advertisement connects a Westborough workplace with its transport routes, offering a specific subject for someone interested in local manufacturing. Frame it in a way that suits the room and keep the historical connection nearby for anyone curious about the picture.
