- Description
- Photo of a Maxwell oat roller that had been recently donated to the St. Marys District Museum by Sam Knapton of Thorndale. It was one of the first Maxwell pieces the Museum received for their Maxwell collection.
Before "The Barn" was built in 1988 on the St. Marys Museum site, the larger objects in the Museum collection were stored at the old Maxwell factory. In this photo (from left to right) Louis Martin, Don Vanstone and Joe Gardner are examining the oat roller.
Maxwell's was a factory in St. Marys which manufactured washing machines and farm implements. - Notes
- Condition: Fair. Image is clear, but paper has aged severely with fingerprints and yellowing. Paperclip rust stain is evident on the back of the photo as well.
