Isn't she pretty?  I really love her hat.

The Hollins Mill was one of the largest cotton mills in England and was built in 1858.  The mill's chimney was 225 feet tall!  Ownership of the mill changed hands several times and the last owner and manufacturer of cotton fabric at the mill was Nehesco Fabric, who took over the mill in 1936. The mill still stands today, minus the chimney, and is used for light industrial manufacturing.

Nehesco Fabric's advertising posters are very collectible today and just looking at this one I can certainly see why.

I hope you can find a way to use this beautiful poster.

Enjoy!
