Few American manufacturers commissioned color lithographs of their works, which makes this view of the Janeway & Carpender wallpaper factory in New Brunswick, New Jersey, unusual. The print is signed by Charles Hart, a lithographer whose firm produced business views of this kind. Such images were typically used as letterhead, catalog illustrations, or trade advertising, presenting a factory as orderly and prosperous. In the late nineteenth century, wallpaper was made in large volumes, and factory views like this one document how mechanized printing and industrial space were promoted to customers and buyers.
