Two pages from the November 1920 installment of E. A. Posselt's serialized Dictionary of Textile Terms in Posselt's Textile Journal. The entries run from Velvet Finish through Rib Crepes, covering fabrics, fibres, yarns, finishes, laces, looms and reeds, with notes on construction, thread counts and end uses. Entries include Venetian, vicuna wool, vigoureux printing, quilts (Alhambra, Honeycomb, Satin, Toilet), ramie, ratines, reed counting and repps. The article ends with "To be continued."
