<i>The Fragile Bridge: Paterson Silk Strike, 1913</i>
(1988)

<i>""The quality of production increases with experience," acknowledged a broad-silk manufacturer in 1924. According to data from his Connecticut mill, broad-silk weavers reached their highest quantity of production after ten to twenty years and attained their peak in quality only after a total of twenty to thirty years, maintaining that level of quality, "without a falling off worth mentioning," through their fiftieth year of weaving."</i>
