Description

Photograph of an interior view of the Champion Mill in Nevada City, 1905. Light shines in from the many large, rectangular windows in the wooden wall on the left as well as the back wall. Many machines can be seen on the left in a row under the wooden beams of the ceiling above. The machines have the material rolled from a spool on one side to a spool on the opposite side while many needles run across them. Tubes extend from a machine in the back on the right to each of these machines. What appear to be sheets of fabric are lying flat on the floor on the right.
