This newspaper page came from a March 16, 1907 edition of a Detroit News newspaper. The page features a story announcing the fire that destroyed author Upton Sinclair's socialistic Helicon Home Colony.
Helicon Home Colony was an experimental community formed by author Upton Sinclair in Englewood, New Jersey, United States, with proceeds from his novel The Jungle. Established in October 1906, it burned down in March 1907 and was disbanded.
