Two pages from the June 1915 installment of E. A. Posselt's serialized Dictionary of Textile Terms, covering entries from Biebrich Scarlet through Bolette Condenser. Entries define fibers, fabrics, laces, dyes and dyeing chemicals, bleaching and silk boiling-off processes, garments, and machinery. Some entries add historical notes, such as the origin of the word blanket and the inventors of the Bolette condenser.
