[LABOR RIGHTS]. Pacific Mills Relief Society. Lawrence, MA: N.p., n.d. [ca. 1850s]. Broadside (438 x 311 mm), old folds, soiling on verso. Massachusetts, particularly cities like Lowell and Lawrence, became major centers for textile manufacturing during the Industrial Revolution, which marked a transition from manual labor and small-scale cottage industries to large-scale mechanized production in factories. The Pacific Mills company provided relief to those who had accidents or were sick while working in the factories which were most likely implemented after pressure from labor movements advocating for workers? rights.
