Description
An account of the resource
This collection gathers documents for a Perry Knitting Co. exhibit on OpenValley. They are drawn from from three main sources.<br /><br />First, the Clark Rice Photography Collection at the Perry, NY Public Library. Rice was a prolific photographer in Western New York throughout the mid-20th century. This collection includes scans of his work, and copies of images from the turn of the century photographer Merrium Crocker, whose studio Rice purchased. <br /><br />Secondly, the Henry Page Local History Files. Page was president of First National Bank of Perry, and a local historian associated with the public library for nearly five decades. His uncle, William, had helped secure funding from the Carnegie Corporation for its establishment in 1900 and construction in 1914. The Page collection contains various historical materials and photographs accumulated by him over the years.<br /><br />Thirdly, we draw upon various public domain texts, such as maps from the Library of Congress or <a href="http://perrypubliclibrary.advantage-preservation.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">digitized articles from local newspapers</a>. All images here are selections from these collections, chosen for their relevance to OpenValley project. We gratefully acknowledge the generosity of the Perry Public Library and its Director, Jessica Pacciotti.

An account of the resource
This photograph almost certainly was taken at the same time as <a href="https://openvalley.org/items/show/1476" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Item #5323</a>, showing women at work in the sewing section of PKC. Here, we have moved toward the back of the room and see different employees and a closer look at the machinist (?) in overalls looking at a machine. From the Rice Collection annotation: "8 x 10 print taken of the interior of the Perry Knitting Mill about 1960, showing women at the machines making the summer garments."

The Cutting Machine
Description
An account of the resource
From the Rice Collection annotation: "8 x 10 black and white photograph inside the Perry Knitting Company showing the cutting machine and two women who ran it, about 1960, one of the women is Mrs. Kwiecien."<br /><br />A fuller story is given in the "Perry Knitting Company News" feature in the <em>Perry Herald</em> (<a href="http://perrypubliclibrary.advantage-preservation.com/viewer/?i=f&by=1955&bdd=1950&d=01011950-12311959&e=perry%20knitting%20company%20news&m=between&ord=e1&fn=perry_herald_usa_new_york_perry_19550630_english_11&df=1&dt=10" target="_blank" rel="noopener">30 June 1955: 11</a>): "The two girls with the nice smiles are Irene Kwiecien on the left and Blanche Monteleone on the right." They're using a cutting machine allowing for handling flat fabric for Nitey Nite sleepwear instead of being knit in tube form. So "the girls" are operating the new machine for winter weight sleepwear, although the work looks strenuous. Their aprons show the stains of hands-on engagement with the machinery.

Refreshments at Perry Knitting Co. Open House
Description
An account of the resource
Community visitors are offered a variety of soft drinks at an open house held on May 21, 1953. “While the project is designed to acquaint people generally with operations of the company," a preview stated, "it will also demonstrate the potential job openings in this local industry” (<em>Perry Herald</em> 21 May 1953: 1). Thus, the festivities were intended to acquaint prospective employees with others currently working at the plant. <br /><br />From the Rice Collection annotation: "The Mill set up a refreshment stand for their guests. The whole village was invited to visit and the school also came to see the Mill at work. Mr. McWithey and his force served the soda pop."

This collection gathers documents for a Perry Knitting Co. exhibit on OpenValley. They are drawn from from three main sources.<br /><br />First, the Clark Rice Photography Collection at the Perry, NY Public Library. Rice was a prolific photographer in Western New York throughout the mid-20th century. This collection includes scans of his work, and copies of images from the turn of the century photographer Merrium Crocker, whose studio Rice purchased. <br /><br />Secondly, the Henry Page Local History Files. Page was president of First National Bank of Perry, and a local historian associated with the public library for nearly five decades. His uncle, William, had helped secure funding from the Carnegie Corporation for its establishment in 1900 and construction in 1914. The Page collection contains various historical materials and photographs accumulated by him over the years.<br /><br />Thirdly, we draw upon various public domain texts, such as maps from the Library of Congress or <a href="http://perrypubliclibrary.advantage-preservation.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">digitized articles from local newspapers</a>. All images here are selections from these collections, chosen for their relevance to OpenValley project. We gratefully acknowledge the generosity of the Perry Public Library and its Director, Jessica Pacciotti.

Inspecting Garments at a Perry Knitting Co. Open House
Description
An account of the resource
According to the Rice Collection annotation, "Clifford Rice and three others inspect the garments made in the Knitting Mill during the Mill Open House in 1954."
This date is probably wrong; there wasn't an open house in 1954, but there was on May 27, 1953. The garments being displayed are likely Nitey Nite brand pajamas.
