Fall 1953 issue of The Shuttle, a promotional magazine for the Maysville Guild, published by January & Wood Co. of Maysville, Kentucky, for users of Maysville carpet warp. It includes readers' methods for keeping rug fringes from fraying in the washing machine, and Alice K. Cripps's directions for a colorful two-harness pattern called "Gentleman's Choice" (bath mats, bags, tray cloths, slipper cases). It also has profiles of guild weavers, a Kentucky State Fair rug contest report, and a Pharaohs Wheel rug draft. Much of the text promotes Maysville warp and Kentucky yarns.
