"The New Ayer Mills. Lawrence, MA, American Woolen Co., now building will employ 3,500 hands. Copyright by Walter E. Rushforth, The Sunday Critio Press. Ayer Mills, William M. Wood, president." The mill exterior is pictured.
This appears to be a pen and ink sketch rather than a photograph. The lower right corner contains the legend "The Ayer Mills, William M. Wood, President". Charles T. Main, architect of the Ayer Mill, is also identified on the image.
The image shows the mill buildings, the clock tower and an exhaust stack. Train tracks and the corner of the Duck Bridge are shown. Tracks are also shown running along the side of the mill building. Other mill buildings along the Merrimack River are also shown in the image.
