A Vicksburg map from 1890 indicates there were two cotton compresses operating in Vicksburg, the upper one in the city block bounded by Mulberry, Depot, Pearl, and South Madison Street which was close to a Vicksburg and Meridian rail road terminal were the Mississippi Hardware is located today. A picture post card in the Mississippi Archives Cooper Postcard collection, indicates this set of buildings was the lower compress and that there were additional buildings, including one for sampling cotton.
