Two pages from Posselt's Textile Journal, May 1912, with the installment of "Chronological Textile Events" covering 1808-1809. It lists the founding of American cotton and woolen mills, merino sheep imports, early power loom and calico printing developments, patents, and British lace-machine inventions by Heathcoat and Kirkland. The pages also hold the end of an article on chemical tests for fibers (jute, ramie, hemp, shoddy, mercerized cotton) and a warp-calculation example from Posselt's "Textile Calculations".
