A. W. Jack Corporation plant at Lockport, New York

In April 1922 Asbestos, the industry's trade journal, reported that the A. W. Jack Corporation of Lockport, N.Y., whose work had "thus far" been "confined to the manufacture of Asbestos Millboard and materials made therefrom," planned a new plant.¹ "The present plant is to be dismantled and the new plant erected on the eight acres of land owned by the corporation, upon which the present plant is now located," the journal wrote.¹ The new plant was meant to make the same class of material "in addition to Asbestos Paper, Air Cell Covering, Boards and other paper products"; the item describes a plan, and no source here says the new plant was built.¹
