Three journal pages from Posselt's Textile Journal, December 1918, continuing the serialized Dictionary of Textile Terms through entries from Oak Apples to Ozier. Entries cover fibres, dyes and dyestuffs (orchil, orcein, olein), fabrics (organdie, ottoman, Oxford shirtings, outing flannel), silk throwing terms (organzine), looms and weaving terms (open shed loom, overpick, overshot), and cotton varieties. The last page also carries short trade news items on silk weighting, ribbons, and the silk markets in New York, Japan, and France near the end of World War I.
