In October 1927, Asbestos, the industry's trade journal, described The Garlock Packing Company's "general factories located at Palmyra, N. Y." as "a complete asbestos textile mill for spinning yarns and weaving fabrics" together with "a rubber manufacturing plant."1 The journal reported that the company had "over seven hundred people in its employ."1
