This image features two sepia-toned photographs mounted on a gray board, showcasing industrial buildings. The photographs are labeled as "Views of Nelson Factories," which are part of "Welfare Institutions N.O. Nelson Co., Leclaire, Ill."

The left photograph displays a factory building surrounded by open land and a few trees in the background, with a tall smokestack visible. The composition highlights the structure's architecture with pitched roofs and evenly spaced windows.

The right photograph focuses on a rail line running alongside another factory building, emphasizing the integration of industry and transportation. The structure here appears more elongated, with another smokestack rising in the distance.

Handwritten text on the board beneath the images states:
"Giving a fair idea of the vine-clad factory buildings, flower beds, etc. This factory employs about 300 men most of whom live in the village of Leclaire adjoining Edwardsville."

The overall presentation suggests an effort to document or promote the factory's community-oriented design and surrounding facilities.
