[Kohler, Wis.]: [Kohler Co.], 1957. First edition. 12mo.; stapled wrappers, 20 pp.; black & white photographs throughout. An address given by Herbert V. Kohler, President of Kohler Co., before The Economic Club of Detroit, Monday, February 25, 1957. A protracted labor dispute began on April 5, 1954 between 2,000 striking workers and the Kohler Co. and lasted for over six years becoming the long major strike in American history. During those turbulent six years, much propaganda was churned out on both sides, each accusing the other of terrorism and violence. In this booklet are photos of union violence against non-striking workers, as well as the bucolic Kohler Village. Scarce in the trade with less than a dozen copies found institutionally via WorldCat.
