My Great Aunt came over from Italy in 1916 and went to work in NYC in a factory just like~~ that sewing women's undergarments. Her Dad changed her birth certificate to make her older than her twelve year just to get her a job. She passed away at 103 a couple of years back.
Look at all of those old sewing machines!
