Two pages from the April 1912 issue of Posselt's Textile Journal, continuing a dictionary of textile terms through entries from ROLL-BOIL to ROOT ROT OF COTTON. Entries cover the roll-boil finishing process for woolens, roller draft, roller gin, roller loom, lace-making rolling, Romney Marsh sheep, and the cotton diseases root galls and root rot. Illustrations include a roller gin diagram, photographs of Romney Marsh sheep, and cotton root disease drawings. The second page also begins a short installment of 'Chronological Textile Events' with 1805 entries on early American cloth and cotton machinery manufacture.
