Records, 1795-1798.

Articles of association, by-laws, minutes of proprietors' meetings, and a copy of the act of incorporation of the Calico Printing Manufactory Corp. Organized in 1795 and incorporated by the Massachusetts General Assembly the following year, the company manufactured printed calico in Boston, and later in Newton, Mass. The first agent of the company, Appleton Prentiss, was replaced in 1797 by Joseph Callender, and many irregularities in the company's books were discovered. Financial problems caused the proprietors to begin liquidating the company late in 1798.
