EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1905, showcases the Moquette Mills in Yonkers, Westchester County, New York State, USA. The image transports us back in time to the early 20th century, as we bear witness to the grandeur and industrial might of the Alexander Smith & Sons Axminster Carpet manufacturing complex. The Moquette Mills, located in Yonkers, were a significant part of the bustling industrial scene in New York State during the 1900s. The large, imposing buildings, with their red-brick facades and tall, chimneys, housed the state-of-the-art machinery used to produce the high-quality Axminster carpets for which Alexander Smith & Sons were renowned. The photograph offers a striking contrast between the industrial landscape and the natural beauty of the surrounding area. The lush, green grass and road leading up to the mills provide a serene backdrop to the hustle and bustle of the factory. The chimneys, belching out plumes of smoke, serve as a reminder of the energy and effort required to produce the intricately woven carpets. The Moquette Mills in Yonkers were a testament to the industrial prowess of America during the early 1900s. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing us with a unique perspective on the history of manufacturing in New York State and the United States as a whole.
