A single-page engraved illustration from Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper, 1871, showing a cotton gin in operation inside a barn-like building. A man in a wide-brimmed hat feeds raw cotton to the gin's roller while a large hand-cranked flywheel drives the machinery, and a woman is also shown at work. The only text is the caption referring readers to page 55 for the accompanying article.
