Number VI in Charles E. Pellew's series on synthetic dyes for craft workers, covering the Acid class of coal-tar colors (Acid Azo dyes and sulphonated basic dyes). It explains their history and properties, then gives dyeing directions for wool (sulphuric acid and Glauber's salt bath, plus irregular 'rainbow' skein dyeing), leather, and feathers, including cleaning and bleaching white feathers. It ends with a table of selected lightfast acid dyes by manufacturer (Badische, Cassella, Elberfeld, Kalle, Metz).
