Catalog of a 1966 exhibition at the Städtisches Museum für Völkerkunde, Frankfurt am Main, on bark-cloth (bast) fabrics and woven textiles from Oceania, India, Indonesia and the Americas. It opens with an essay on bast fibre and bark cloth and technical notes on weaves (plain, rib, twill), ikat, batik, tritik, plangi and tapestry weaving with a glossary. Regional chapters on India, Indonesia, Mexico and Peru/Bolivia precede a catalog of numbered plates, with measurements, provenance and collection numbers. Most pages are colour and black-and-white plates of garments, shawls, skirts, ponchos and bark cloths.
