Three pages from the August 1912 issue of Posselt's Textile Journal. The main piece is an installment of a chronological history of textile events, covering 1813 in the United States: the Boston Manufacturing Company and its Waltham cotton mill with the power loom (Francis C. Lowell, Nathan Appleton, Patrick Tracy Jackson, Paul Moody), plus woolen, cotton, silk and carding enterprises and patents of that year. The pages also carry the end of an article on roller cloth and roller leather for spinning machinery, and the start of a 'Ring Frame' notes section on spindle power consumption and band tension.
