A 1938 economic survey of the jacquard weaving industry in Paterson, New Jersey, prepared by an industrial consultant for the city's Industrial Commission. It covers the industry's size and growth, capital requirements, and mechanical equipment (jacquard machines, harnesses, looms, winding, quilling and warping equipment, card cutting, used machinery). Further chapters treat labor, wages and union contracts, production and fabric types (neckwear, shoe brocades, metallic cloth), marketing, style and design piracy, factoring of receivables, imports, and ways to improve competitive conditions. Illustrated with mill photographs and many statistical tables; there are no weaving drafts.
