Three pages from Posselt's Textile Journal, May 1912, continuing the serialized Dictionary of Technical Terms Relating to the Textile Industry with entries from ROPE WALK through RYELAND SHEEP. Entries cover fibers, yarn counts, spinning machinery (roving frame, roving reel, jack spools), fabrics, colors and lace, with illustrations of rotary presses and a roving frame. Page 3 also begins a continuation of a Fabric Analysis series with chemical tests for distinguishing true and wild silk, cotton in linen, and jute from hemp or flax, plus a table of reactions of artificial and natural silks.
