August 1929
This 1929 newsletter from the Biddeford Mills in Biddeford, Maine, was produced by the mill for its workforce and their families, with a Pepperell Sheets manufacturing focus. Its photographs are small, grainy halftone snapshots of young women in winter coats and cloche hats on snowy ground, and a boy seated on a wooden chair, captioned with lighthearted remarks; a designer might take from them the casual 1920s street fashion and the informal snapshot tone of mill-town community print.
