Two pages from the June 1921 issue of Posselt's Textile Journal (pp. 125-126) carrying the "W" section of a dictionary of textile terms, running from Wild Silk through Wool. Entries cover wild silks (Tussah, Eria, Fagara, Yamamay), carpets and fabrics such as Wilton and wincey, wool processing machines (willow, willeying), dyes (woad, wongshy), and wool grades. The second page also has short news items on British wool research and on Empire cotton growing.
