Three pages from Posselt's Textile Journal, July 1921, carrying an installment of the Dictionary of Textile Terms covering entries from Round Top through Wyper, with most entries on wool: grades, sorting, scouring, woolen versus worsted, and yarn counts. The installment also defines weaving terms such as wraith, wrong draw and wyper. The last page has short trade news items on unemployment in Yorkshire, Oldham and Roubaix-Tourcoing, a Novelties in Design piece with three design figures (jacquard, dobby, leno check), and a Galashiels tweed trade report.
