industrial revolution

 1732 - 1792

Showing Arkwright's spinning machine and drawings.  Patented in 1769, this machine was too large to be used by hand and was powered by water.  It propelled the introduction of the modern factory system.

  3. I like the drawing in the background. From invention to reality.
    Past industry also makes an appearance here

  4. It always amazes me to see the first machines or tools and compare them to the recent ones. Great stamp!

  6. I like how his machine is like a fine piece of furniture - albeit with thread bobbins.
