Two pages from Posselt's Textile Journal, June 1911, continuing a series on ribbons, trimmings and edgings. The first page explains how to produce figured effects with double faced satins (5-, 6- and 8-leaf satin bases in checkerboard and spot arrangements, with warp dressing and repeat sizes). It then begins a section on figures in smooth ribbons using figure warps on point paper. The second page covers figuring with a special figure pick (two systems of filling) versus figure warp, with the ground weave and chain analysis for Fig. 170. A short item on leafy cotton grades closes the scan.
