Walker-Wells automobile-body factory district and Boston & Maine rail yard
Bring a little Amesbury home.
Slate Desk Plaque · 11 × 7 inches
Between opening a book and making a few notes, a small display can give the eye somewhere else to go. Factory buildings and the Boston and Maine rail yard share Amesbury's Walker-Wells scene, joining manufacturing with the routes alongside the workplace.
A circa-1911–1915 postcard shows Amesbury's Walker-Wells automobile-body factory district and Boston and Maine rail yard. Manufacturing buildings and rail infrastructure occupy the same scene. The published view preserves a particular workplace setting, linking the town's industrial identity with the transport routes alongside it.
The automobile-body factory district connects Amesbury's production history with rail transport, giving someone interested in industry a particular working neighborhood to keep in view. Make room beside the pen cup or books, keeping the small display within reach of an ordinary day's work at home.
