Two pages from Posselt's Textile Journal presenting installments of the "Dictionary of Weaves," a monthly series of weaves taken from market fabrics in cotton, wool, worsted and silk. The pages show large drawdown grids of eight-harness and sixteen-harness weaves, labeled with repeat sizes, mostly twill-based. Text is promotional, stating that the complete dictionary would contain over 30,000 practical weaves for mill designers and superintendents.
