Description
Steelmaking operations began at Sparrows Point in 1889, most of the time under the ownership of Bethlehem Steel. The mill closed for good in 2012. They made many large items, but they also made smaller items such as nails. This perspective is looking inside a smaller wood barrel which tells us this contained 100 lbs. of nails and was shipped in this wooden barrel.
