According to Editor Pat Ranzoni, “STILL MILL is a one-of-a-kind account documenting the birth and evolution of a world-class papermaking culture, and the shocking, sudden destruction of that whole culture as told by generations of the people, ourselves. Our history. Our sociology. Our strengths, beliefs and humanity. Our music. Our Maine and our America. Most of all, our working class testament of pain and pride – a privilege to collect and protect.

All royalties from the sale of Still Mill are being donated to the mill museum. These donations formed the original financial foundation of the museum fund.

Still Mill is available at BookStacks on Main Street in Bucksport, other independent bookstores, on Amazon or through North Country Press.

These made-in-Maine cotton towels are $16 each, custom-designed and printed by distinguished artist Jennifer Connor, with Larry Wahl’s prized drawings of iconic lunch and dinner containers carried by workers throughout the history of the mill. Excellent for kitchen use, wall hangings, pillow covers, awards, and gifts for those with ties to the Bucksport region, the mill, and the world of work.

All proceeds from the sale of these towels go directly to the Bucksport Historical Society for the renovation, exhibits, and upkeep of the new Bucksport Paper Mill Museum to be located at the “Gate House” building of the former mill here in town on Route 15 (Main St).

Look for these towels at BookStacks on Main Street in Bucksport or Rob’s Hardware, on the Acadia Highway in Orland, or send a check for $16 per towel (add $5.40 for postage for 1 towel, $6.00 for postage for 2 towels) to the Bucksport Historical Society attention Mill Museum towels at P.O.
