Three-page installment of E. A. Posselt's alphabetical dictionary of textile terms, from the December 1912 issue of Posselt's Textile Journal, covering entries from Sindon through Smyrna cotton. Entries define singeing, sizing and slashing, knitting machine parts (sinkers, slur), sisal hemp, cotton varieties, sliver and slubbing processes, and gauze-weaving terms. Page 2 includes draft and weave-plan specimens of skip twills and skip drafts, and illustrations show a Whitin sliver lap machine and a cotton slubbing frame.
