Most of these items were not collected for the Museum but were left when the company closed. These artifacts are closely related to the operation of the factory from 1892 to 2002 and present how hard employees worked in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The value of these artifacts would be hard to value outside their historic value connected with the site and it is the intention of the organization to never sell them as it would be a great loss to historians and the general public.
