Other Worcester firsts include American postcards, new loom designs, the corset, the all-night-lunch, the first national convention advocating women's rights, the railroad passenger car, and a public city park.See 284 lively, color postcard views and modern photos that help tell Worcester's story, one of the oldest commercial success tales in the country.
