Second part of George Middleton's article on machine-made imitations of hand-made lace, published just before his death. It gives non-technical descriptions of the bobbinet, bobbinet-Jacquard (Pusher), Levers, schiffli embroidery and Barmen lace machines, including the size, parts and cost of a Levers machine. It then presents plates of machine laces: early knitted laces, a Washington portrait, rococo, Point Milan, Chantecler, Duchesse, Paris 1900 Exposition lace, burnt-out schiffli lace and Barmen versus hand-made laces.
