A two-page excerpt from the February 1911 issue of Posselt's Textile Journal. It opens with short trade news items on Chinese and Japanese cotton competition, the Russian and Egyptian cotton crops, and British fire tests for flannelette. It then begins a chronology of textile history from 5000 B.C. to 1605 A.D. (to be continued), covering silk, wool, cotton, linen, lace, knitting and weaving guilds. The second page also starts a technical article on cotton carding and fly frame management, covering spindle speeds, creel bobbins and machine cleaning.
