First edition of this scarce and fascinating business and land promotion for the city of Lynn, Massachusetts at the height of the Gilded Age, filled with advertising extolling the virtues and products of this New England manufacturing town. Following the Civil War, Lynn rapidly developed as the center of shoe manufacturing, and leather manufacturers in Massachusetts, revolutionized by the introduction widespread adoption and use of the shoe sewing machine. The advertisements in this work, the photographs, and text all indicate a fast growing economy, filled with wide streets, well built homes & businesses, a broad array of retailers including jewelers, carpenters, gunsmiths, cigar stores, lumber stores, grocery stores, hardware stores, as well as a wider group of dyers, leather makers, machinists, and factories all acting as suppliers for the dominant shoe trade. The photographs include street scenes, businesses, and contemporary advertising, as well as photographic photos of the Kid & Morocco Manufactory for P.P. Tapley & Co. at No. 114 Broad Street; Factory & retail operation for C.H. Aborn & Co., Lennox & Co. Goat & Morocco; John Mahon & Sons Shoe Manufacturers; the Bay Street Wheel Co. with sample wheels arranged in front; the Lynn Hotel first opened in 1803 and built by the Salem Turnpike & Chelsea Bridge Corp. Also included is a photo advertising Josiah Heal's attempt to sell his grocery business & building for $ 75,000 at the corner of Washington & Oxford Streets in order to go West (he does not appear in census or street directories for about 10 years). Of particular interest is the photo of Lydia E. Pinkham's residence & laboratory producing the famed Vegetable Compound, marketed to women to relieve menstrual cramps and menopausal symptoms, first developed in 1873 containing black cohosh, life root, unicorn root, pleurisy root, and fenugreek seed, with a "preservative" of 20% alcohol. From 1860 to the end of the 19th century Lynn's population increased from about 12,000 to over 60,000, with a massive influx of farm workers leaving the farms to fill the factory jobs, as well as increased immigration. Cook (fl. 1872-1879), operated as a photographer in Sharon and Hudson, Massachusetts, but no address for a studio appear in contemporary street directories. Heal (1841-1925) was one of the most successful grocers and civic boosters for Lynn, Massachusetts, and although unclear whether he ever made the move West, he does not appear to have directory listings for his business during part of the 1880s.
