Abstract:

The electric sign over the Cannon Mills plant, built in 1930, was a local landmark in Kannapolis. Facing both U.S. 29 and the Southern Railway, the sign welcomed visiting travelers. Just as the textile industry disappeared from North Carolina, so too has this sign as it was recently taken down.
