Two journal pages from the June 1916 issue of Posselt's Textile Journal, continuing E. A. Posselt's alphabetical Dictionary of Textile Terms from 'Denmark Satin' through 'Doily'. Entries define fabrics, fibers, dyes and finishing chemicals (dextrin, diastase, diazo colors), lace types, and loom and carding terms (dent, dobby, doffer, designer's paper). Some entries explain weave construction, such as diagonal, diaper, dimity and doeskin. There are no weaving drafts.
