Two pages of the serialized 'Dictionary of Weaves' from Posselt's Textile Journal, consisting mainly of drawdown grids for sixteen-harness and eight-harness weaves (16 x 24, 16 x 16, 8 x 24, 8 x 16, 8 x 8). The accompanying text explains that the dictionary appears monthly, collects weaves taken from fabrics found in the market (cotton, wool, worsted and silk), and was planned to reach over 30,000 practical weaves. The pages also carry promotional text for the journal.
