An article from Posselt's Textile Journal (February 1922) explaining how damask fabrics are woven on a jacquard loom. It describes tying several mails to each jacquard cord so that threads move in groups, how point-paper designs correspond to groups of threads, and the supplementary front harnesses that tie the figure. It also covers the cross-shed problem and relief devices such as the half-harness. The second page has the journal's subscription notice and an unrelated economic article on postwar price levels, with tables of money, production, wages and prices.
