Mass+Production

Mass production was the result of a few different things. Mass production is pretty self explanatory. It is the production of a lot of goods in a fast, fairly cheap way. Mass production came about during the Industrial Revolution. One reason it came about is the introduction of the factory system, in which one item was made in the factory. This meant that the item could be mass produced in the factory. Mass production was also the result of a growing demand for goods. People wanted things and were buying them. As a result, goods began to be produced on a huge scale to sell to people. The development of machinery also aided mass production. http://www.loc.gov/exhibits/empire/images/p87_111x__00093_.jpg
