A spinning frame demonstrated at the exhibition, 1937

Behind a sheet of glass, a spinning frame with rows of spools above and white bobbins below turns steadily, the maker's name on its frame; a woman in a white work coat steps in and tends the threads. The spinning of synthetic staple fibre was one of the proudest achievements on show, because every kilogram replaced cotton that had to be paid for in scarce foreign currency.
