Two pages from The Textile Mercury of 16 May 1891. The main item describes the Dobcross loom made by Hutchinson, Hollingworth and Co. for woollen and worsted fancy weaving, covering its drive, jacquard or dobby shedding, positive take-up, open-shed heald motion, shuttle boxes, underpick and let-off, with two mechanical drawings. The pages also carry a short note on cotton ginning, a New York correspondence on the American carpet and dry goods trade, and a reader's letter on Indian factory hours.
