Fabric of History

Bill Emory and Victoria Dunham have launched a great new blog that focuses on the rich history of Charlottesville's Woolen Mills neighborhood.

Check it out: http://www.historicwoolenmills.org/fabric.html

In honor of their new blog, here's an image from my collection that shows the Woolen Mills as it looked in the 1910s:


I look forward to seeing what treasures Bill and Victoria dig up!

Very cool Dave, I've actually never seen that postcard before.

I'd love to shout "Hey, I can see my house from here!" but alas it's just a hair out of the frame on the upper left. There were many more trees on the property then too... very interesting.

Thanks for the shout out on your blog and also for sharing your amazing postcard collection with everyone.
