A [Draper Co.?] boarding house and the Hopedale Elastic Fabric Company are at center left on Dutcher St. at Freedom St., built in 1887. Other residential buildings are scattered around, although most of the area is open fields. It is unclear exactly which building is the Hopedale Elastic Fabric Company as all of the buildings appear to be residential, unless it is the partial building seen on the left. Original photograph by the Draper Company. 5 x 7 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 1, Folder 5, Item 1011 for print of this negative.

A walkway leads to a set of steps at the rear of the house as well. All the windows have shutters. This house is probably the one that appears in Negative 176, in this box. The house on the right is not quite as large and in a different style, but is also most likely a duplex, as Hopedale housing built for Draper Company employees was not generally larger than a duplex. This house is also two-and-a-half stories and is wood-shingled; it does not, however, have shutters which is unusual for Draper Company housing (possibly the house is not quite finished). The two houses appear to be bisected by another road on which there are more houses as glimpses of two other houses can be seen behind the house on the left. The road is wide and unpaved; one electric pole stands at the side of the road. See Box 15, Negative 182 for another view of these houses.

A walkway leads to a set of steps at the rear of the house as well. All the windows have shutters. This house is probably the one that appears in Box 14, Negative 176. The house in the right background is not quite as large and in a different style, but is also most likely a duplex, as Hopedale housing built for Draper Company employees was not generally larger than a duplex. This house is also two-and-a-half stories and is wood-shingled; it does not, however, have shutters which is unusual for Draper Company housing (possibly the house is not quite finished). The house on the left features two gables and has three chimneys. This house is most likely on a dirt road that can barely be discerned; see Box 14, Negative 173 for a closer view of two of these houses. The road is wide and unpaved; one electric pole stands at the side of the road. These houses were built for Draper Company employees. 5 x 7 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 2, Folder 3, Item 182 for print of this negative.

Negative no.A183. 1901-1916. Image depicts a view of the back yards of the houses on Bancroft Parkway in Hopedale, Massachusetts Substantial two-story wood-shingled houses line the unpaved road on both sides. Most of the houses have two chimneys and are most likely duplexes, as Hopedale housing for Draper employees was generally not larger than a duplex.

Negative no.A184. 1901-1916. Image depicts a view of a row of houses on Bancroft Parkway in Hopedale, Massachusetts All are substantial, two-and-a-half-story wood-shingled houses done in different architectural styles. The houses on the left-hand side of the street have trees and bushes planted and there is a paved sidewalk on that side of the street; those houses may have been constructed before the right-hand side of the street. The sidewalk on the right- hand side of the street is still dirt and there are no trees or bushes. A fire hydrant is on the street, which is wide and unpaved. These houses were built for Draper Company employees. See Box 14, Negative 177 for a view of the same section of the street taken from the opposite end, showing more of the houses on what is the left-hand side of the street here. 5 x 7 in.

Negative no.A186. 1903-1906. Image depicts a four-story wooden boarding house. The building has three chimneys visible from this angle and a lightning rod. Shutters have been installed at some of the windows, but the far left side appears to be still under construction. No windows or shutters have been installed on that side, and there are two ladders leaning against the porch roof. (Notes in the accession folder indicate the boardinghouse was "doubled" which may account for the unfinished aspects of it.) A front porch runs the length of the building. The sign "Hopedale House," which can be seen in Box 22, Negative 343 and Negative 344 has not yet been installed, all of which suggests a date closer to 1903 than 1905, the date for both Negative 343 and Negative 344. A fire escape is visible on the right-hand end of the building. Note the laundry hanging on lines in the back yard on the right. A few bare trees are visible, possibly just planted. Founders of the Draper Company, brothers George and Ebenezer Draper were responsible for creating the integrated, planned community of Hopedale with innovative employee housing and recreational spaces, in addition to employment. See also Box 22, Negative 344 for another view of Hopedale House. 5 x 7 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 2, Folder 3, Item 186 for print of this negative.

Negative no.A188. ca. 1900. Image depicts a view of the Adin Ballou house in Hopedale, Massachusetts, a two-story wooden clapboard building with two brick chimneys and shutters on some of the windows. A one-story extension of the house is at the back (or the back portion of the house was constructed as one story). There is a picket fence running parallel to the sidewalk from one side of the house. Ballou (1803-1890) was a prominent proponent of pacifism, socialism and abolitionism, and the founder (in 1842) of the Hopedale Community, a utopian community blending a factory town with a religious-based commune. See Negative 199, in this box, for a view of the house taken from the opposite angle. The house was located at the corner of Peace and Hopedale streets until it was moved to Dutcher Street in 1900; see Box 125, Negative 2266 for a view of the house in 1919.

It is not known exactly where this bust was placed (possibly somewhere in the Draper Company offices or plant), but it has been set into a corner of a room and is blocked off by a curved railing to protect it. Founders of the Draper Company, brothers George and Ebenezer Draper were responsible for creating the integrated, planned community of Hopedale with innovative employee housing and recreational spaces, in addition to employment. George Draper died in 1887. Original photograph by the Draper Company. 5 x 7 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 2, Folder 3, Item 190 for print of this negative.

Negative no.A198. 1903-1906. Image depicts a bronze marker placed at the corner of an unknown street and Dutcher Street. The marker reads: "Upton 4 1/2 miles" at the top and " This Street Presented to the Town of Hopedale by William F. Draper [date illegible]" at the base. Upton, Massachusetts, is a town located northwest of Hopedale. Dutcher Street is probably the larger, unpaved street on the right, on which several houses and electric poles are located. A low stone wall marks the street corner behind the marker. William Draper was associated with the Draper Company, the founders of which created the integrated, planned community of Hopedale with innovative employee housing and recreational spaces, in addition to employment. Original photograph by the Draper Company. 5 x 7 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 2, Folder 3, Item 198 for print of this negative.

Negative no.A199. ca. 1900. Image depicts a view of the Adin Ballou house in Hopedale, Massachusetts, a two-story wooden clapboard building with a brick chimney and shutters on some of the windows. The house sits on a corner of Peace and Hopedale streets, with a tree right on the corner. Another house can be seen to the right behind it. Ballou (1803-1890) was a prominent proponent of pacifism, socialism and abolitionism, and the founder (in 1842) of the Hopedale Community, a utopian community blending a factory town with a religious-based commune. See Negative 188, in this box, for a view of the house taken from the opposite angle. The house was moved to Dutcher Street in 1900; see Box 125, Negative 2266 for a view of the house in 1919.

Some houses are visible to the left of the complex and a couple to the right, but most of this image consists of the pond. Original photograph by the Draper Company. 5 x 7 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 2, Folder 3, Item 202 for print of this negative.

Negative no.A204. 1903-1906. Image depicts a view of Hopedale Park, which appears to be a fairly barren stretch of land. There are some low stone walls running through the park in the background and some post-and-wire fences off to the right. Two houses can be seen in the left background. A four-story house (possibly a boardinghouse?) can be seen in the right foreground with wood trim decorative elements, shutters at every window, and an open front porch. Several wooden poles are on the edges of the street, but they have not yet been connected as either electric or telegraph poles (the pole closest to the boardinghouse is an electric pole, connected to the boardinghouse). It is possible this image was taken before the park had been fully established and the park and surrounding area had been landscaped. Image taken from a high angle, probably a second- or third-story window. See also Negative 206, in this box. Original photograph by the Draper Company. 5 x 7 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 2, Folder 3, Item 204 for print of this negative.

Negative no.A206. 1903-1906. Image depicts a view of a section of Hopedale Park. An unpaved road cuts through the foreground, behind which is a low stone wall with low stone pillars, which may mark the entrance (or one of the entrances) to the park.

See Box 22, Negative 335 for a view of the entire row of houses on the left. Original photograph taken by the Draper Company. 8 x 10 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 12, Folder 4, Item 107 for print of this negative.

Negative no.B112. 1894-1900. Image depicts a four-story wooden clapboard house, with shutters at all the windows (a few are closed). A porch stretches across the entire front of the house with two sets of steps to the porch. There is a bay window on the left side, with a back porch beyond it. A sign "Park House" sits above the front porch roof. This is most likely a Draper Company boardinghouse, and looks somewhat similar to Hopedale House. There is a small lawn in front and some new trees have been planted; the house sits at the corner of two streets. Original photograph by the Draper Company. 8 x 10 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 12, Folder 4, Item 112 for print of this negative.

Negative no.B124. 1900-1903. Image depicts a view of the interior of an office in the Draper Company, possibly the Foundry Dept. office, given the wooden box stamped "Foundry Dept." under the table on the left. A rolltop desk in the center background is loaded with papers, ledgers, and cubbyholes, also filled with papers. A unit resembling a telephone sits at the edge of the desk, and may be a method of communicating to another office or the dept. floor. The desk to the right of the rolltop desk holds a typewriter and is also filled with papers and ledgers. Framed prints hang on the walls above windows which possibly look over the working floor. The Draper Company manufactured textile machinery, primarily looms. 8 x 10 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 12, Folder 4, Item 124 for print of this negative.

Negative no.B134. May 7, 1903. Image depicts a view of the west side of Hopedale Street in Hopedale, Massachusetts, showing the Draper Company shop and office. It is possible the two-story brick building in the center is the office, but it is unclear. That building, and the two-story building directly behind it with the one-story extension to the left all have striped awnings on some of the windows. Larger factory buildings can be seen behind in the background on both sides. A man stands on the sidewalk in front of the center building. Hopedale Street is unpaved, as is the street running perpendicularly in the left foreground, but both have sidewalks. There are a number of trees along the street. A set of trolley tracks runs along Hopedale Street. A water tower is on the top of the building at the left in the background. The Draper Company manufactured textile machinery, primarily looms.

Negative no.B156. May 9, 1903. Image depicts a view of the side of Henry Patrick's store in Hopedale, Massachusetts The building is a two-story clapboard, with shutters at some windows and a chimney in the rear. A horse-drawn wagon has been backed up to the door and is loaded with goods; another horse-drawn wagon carrying barrels is in the center of the image. The store was located on the west side of Hopedale Street; the front view of the store would be to the left, outside this image. The Henry L. Patrick store was established in 1869 and was a general country store, stocking all sorts of goods and commodities. The building was torn down in 1966. Original photograph by the Draper Company. 8 x 10 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 12, Folder 4, Item 156 for print of this negative.

Negative no.B159. Image depicts part of the west side of Hopedale Street in Hopedale, Massachusetts, showing a small wooden clapboard house on the right, with shutters and curtains at the windows. In the center background is a small, one-story building that is probably the railroad depot. Railroad cars can be seen behind it. To the left is a horse-drawn carriage and two other horses probably hooked to wagons. What appears to be smoke in the air is probably from a railroad engine. In the foreground (on the east side of Hopedale Street) is grass and several trees. Original photograph by the Draper Company. 8 x 10 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 12, Folder 4, Item 159 for print of this negative.

Negative no.B160. May 12, 1903. Image depicts a three-story stone building situated on the corner of Hopedale Street (in front of the building) and another, unknown street on the right. The building was designed by architect Fred Swasey of Milford and built in 1886; note the cornerstone with the phrase "anno domini" and the date in Roman numerals. The building appears to be in the Romanesque style, somewhat similar to that of H. H. Richardson. The building has two chimneys and a gabled roof with decorative ironwork running along the upper edge. There are three entrances at the front, one of which is to the post office (note the two windows labeled "Post Office") and another to the left to another business. The curved archway is probably the entrance to the town hall itself. See also Box 23, Negative 351. Original photograph by the Draper Company. 8 x 10 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 12, Folder 4, Item 160 for print of this negative.

Negative no.B164. May 12, 1903. Image depicts the east side of Hopedale Street in Hopedale, Massachusetts, between Social and Union streets. It is unclear if Hopedale Street is the unpaved street in the foreground, or if it is the side street on which a number of houses are visible. These houses are substantial two-story wood clapboard buildings; another two-story wood clapboard house is on the right side of the side street. Some open ground or lawn separates that house from the unpaved street in the foreground. Trees line the side street. Original photograph by the Draper Company. 8 x 10 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 12, Folder 4, Item 164 for print of this negative.

Negative no.B165. Image depicts a view of the part of the east side of Hopedale Street in Hopedale, Massachusetts, between Social & Union streets. Two residential, wooden clapboard buildings can be seen, with glimpses of a few other houses in the background. Hopedale Street (which is the cross street in this view) is lined with trees. The pole with the sign on it (which cannot be read from this angle) is at the beginning of the Draper Company complex; see Box 133, Negative 135. The wide street in the foreground (either Social or Union Street) is unpaved. Original photograph by the Draper Company. 8 x 10 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 12, Folder 4, Item 165 for print of this negative.

Negative no.B170. May 12, 1903. Image depicts a two-story house with attic, shutters at the windows, and a front porch that stretches the length of the house. A porte-cochere (carriage porch) is barely visible on the left; it appears to be an extension of the porch. The house is set back from Hopedale Street (in the foreground) behind a row of bushes and some lawn. Two trees flank Hopedale Street in front of the house. This is the house in which Charles and Lura Day lived; she was the daughter of Joseph and Sylvia Bancroft. The lot was owned by F. M. Day in the 1890s and was on the corner of Hopedale and Hope streets. Hope Street would be to the right, beyond the edge of the image. The house stands opposite the Bancroft Memorial Library, which was built in 1898. Original photograph by the Draper Company. 8 x 10 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 12, Folder 5, Item 170 for print of this negative.

Negative no.B173. May 13, 1903. Image depicts a three-story wood clapboard house with a mansard roof, a porch that stretches the length of the front of the house and around the corner, and a small one-story extension with a bay window in the right rear. A balustrade runs around the edge of the front porch roof and of the roof over the extension. The house sits at the corner of Hopedale and Draper streets; it originally belonged to George and Hannah Draper and then to their daughter and son-in-law, Hannah Twing Draper and Edward Louis Osgood. By 1920 the Osgoods had moved to another house on the Hopedale-Milford line known as "The Larches." Original photograph by the Draper Company. 8 x 10 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 12, Folder 5, Item 173 for print of this negative.

Negative no.B175. Image depicts a stone church with a tower in front (hidden behind trees), and an extension to the right. Trees and grass surround the church. The church is located at 65 Hopedale Street; the unpaved street can be seen in the foreground. The parish was formed October 2, 1867. The church building was erected through the generosity of Eben S. Draper and George Albert Draper in memory of their father and mother. Dedication services for the church edifice were held on September 15, 1898. The architectural style is English Gothic.

Negative no.B177. May 16, 1903. Image depicts a view of the Draper Company shop, although it is unknown if this is the temple shop or another department of the company. The building is a wood clapboard building, and appears to be four stories tall. A covered walkway on the left connects it to a brick building seen on the far left. A horse hooked to an empty buggy stands on tree- shaded Hopedale Street. Grass and open space is in the foreground. The Draper Company manufactured textile machinery, primarily looms. Original photograph by the Draper Company. 8 x 10 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 12, Folder 5, Item 177 for print of this negative.

Negative no.B178. May 16, 1903. Image depicts a view of the west side of Hopedale Street in Hopedale, Massachusetts, showing the Draper Company office. It is possible the two-story brick building in the center is the office, but it is unclear; the two-story building directly behind it with the one-story extension to the left may all be part of the office. Both buildings have striped awnings on some of the windows. Larger factory buildings can be seen behind in the background on both sides. Hopedale Street is unpaved, as is the street running perpendicularly in the left foreground, but both have sidewalks. There are a number of trees along the street. A set of trolley tracks runs along Hopedale Street. A water tower is on the top of the building at the left in the background. The Draper Company manufactured textile machinery, primarily looms. See Box 133, Negative 134 for this same view taken nine days earlier. See Box 133, Negative 135 and Negative 136 for views of the buildings on the street to the left of what is shown in this image.

Negative no.B181. May 28, 1903. Image depicts a view of a chain warper manufactured by the Draper Company of Hopedale, Massachusetts The warper has been photographed against a sheet to set it off from other machinery on the floor. A warper is any machine for preparing and arranging the yarns intended for the warp of a fabric. A ball warper, for instance, is a machine for winding off yarn from a large number of packages and coiling it as a loose rope into a ball. A chain warp is a warp similar to a ball warp but usually of fewer threads, linked in the form of a chain so as to facilitate bleaching, dyeing, shipping, etc. The Draper Company manufactured textile machinery, primarily looms. 8 x 10 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 12, Folder 5, Item 181 for print of this negative.

Negative no.B188. June 1, 1903. Image depicts a view of the east side of Dutcher Street in Hopedale, Massachusetts The house on the right is a substantial two-and-a-half story building, most likely a two-family (note the two sets of steps in the front). The house beyond it is smaller and may be a single family. Beyond that house is a series of connected townhouses, probably multi-family. All are wood clapboard buildings. All have large expansive lawns in front bordering on the street. A dog lays on the lawn in the center foreground. These houses were most likely constructed for Draper Company employees. Founders of the Draper Company, brothers George and Ebenezer Draper were responsible for creating an integrated, planned community with innovative employee housing and recreational spaces and events, in addition to employment. See Negative 189, in this box, for a view of the side of the house on the right. Original photograph by the Draper Company. 8 x 10 in.

Negative no.B190. Image depicts a line of houses in Prospect Heights, Milford, Massachusetts The first in the line is a series of connected townhouses, with eight total entrances. The next house appears to be detached (there are two small children in front of it), and then a second set of connected townhouses, with a detached house beyond that, etc. These are two-story brick buildings designed to accommodate multiple families. These buildings feature Tudor-style timbering in the gables on the end building, roofed entrances (some single, some double), and shutters at all the windows (some closed). There are small lawns in front between the houses and the street. Open space is in the foreground. Prospect Heights was built as housing for Draper Company employees, but most houses in Prospect Heights were brick, as opposed to the wooden housing found in Hopedale, Massachusetts The houses are believed to have been designed by Peabody & Stearns. See Box 22, Negative 340 for a closer view of the end houses. 8 x 10 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 12, Folder 5, Item 190 for print of this negative.

These are two-story brick buildings designed to accommodate multiple families. These buildings feature roofed entrances and shutters at all the windows (some closed). There are small lawns in front between the houses and the street. Open space is in the foreground. While it would appear that this view is of the front of these houses, the two clotheslines filled with laundry across the road suggest this may actually be a rear view of these buildings. Another clothesline filled with laundry can be seen between two buildings on the left. Prospect Heights was built as housing for Draper Company employees, but most houses in Prospect Heights were brick, as opposed to the wooden housing found in Hopedale, Massachusetts The houses are believed to have been designed by Peabody & Stearns. Founders of the Draper Company, brothers George and Ebenezer Draper were responsible for creating an integrated, planned community with innovative employee housing and recreational spaces and events, in addition to employment. 8 x 10 in.

Negative no.B194. August 28, 1903. Image depicts a street of substantial two-story, wood-shingled houses. The house in the center right has a porch on the side and is probably a two-family, with an entrance on the other side of the house as well. The second house from the left is also a two-family with two entrances. Most of these houses are most likely two-family residences. All of the houses have shutters on the windows and lawns with some trees and bushes planted in front of them. The street, which curves around the houses, is unpaved but there is a sidewalk. These houses were constructed for employees of the Draper Company. Founders of the Draper Company, brothers George and Ebenezer Draper were responsible for creating an integrated, planned community with innovative employee housing and recreational spaces and events, in addition to employment. 8 x 10 in.

Negative no.B197. August 28, 1903. Image depicts two houses on the north end of Bancroft Parkway. The house in the center is a substantial two-and-a-half story wood-shingled house, with two separate porches, most likely a duplex. The house to the left, which is somewhat hidden by trees, is a wood-shingled duplex with two entrances. (This house can also be seen in Box 14, Negative 169.) The unpaved road is wide and curves around between the two houses. Electric poles have been erected along the side of the street; a fire hydrant is also visible. These houses were built for Draper Company employees. See also Box 13, Negative 155. 8 x 10 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 12, Folder 5, Item 197 for print of this negative.

Negative no.B250. 1903-1916. Image depicts houses in Hopedale, Massachusetts; photo taken from a higher elevation, possibly a Draper Company building? Body of water in the center of the photo may be part of the Mill River. Note the housewife in her apron in the very bottom left of the photo. Original photograph by the Draper Company. 8 x 10 in.

Negative no.B861. February 11, 1911. Image depicts an unidentified male operative demonstrating how mill operatives would suck the thread through the eye of a shuttle. The man holds the shuttle to his mouth; he would use his right hand to draw the thread out. Mill operatives would draw the thread through their mouths to help smooth it and make it easier to draw through the eye of the shuttle. However, sucking on cotton thread could eventually cause lung problems and did so in many mill operatives. The unidentified man wears work clothes: dark shirt and pants with a light tie. He also wears wire-rimmed glasses. The demonstration takes place in an unidentified mill; the battery of a loom can be seen on the left. He is presumably a Draper Company employee. See Negative 862 and Negative 863, in this box, for images of another employee demonstrating this, and Box 179, Negative 870 through Negative 874 for images demonstrating this procedure using a skeleton. As the Draper Company manufactured textile machinery, primarily looms, and did not manufacture cloth, it is unclear what relation this photograph has to Draper unless it was to demonstrate something with their looms. 8 x 10 in. See Collection 6612 P, Box 15, Folder 1, Item 861 for print of this negative.
