The author has discovered an intact collection of World War II era hemp samples that document the state of the North American hemp industry before it was shut down at the end of the Hemp for Victory Campaign in 1945. Included in one box are samples of various grades of hemp straw and hemp fiber. The second box contains sales samples of hemp and hemp-blend yarns and threads. It also contains samples of finished textiles, hemp hurds and seeds and other miscellaneous items. The collection offers a wide range of research possibilities.
