A December 1930 trade-journal article surveying new rayon yarns and fabrics then reaching the market. It covers yarn developments (Lamicel, Sase, Bemberg, Celanese, Acele), and uses in sheets, bedspreads, velvets, crepes, knits, lingerie, sportwear, lace, neckties, draperies and upholstery. Six fabric samples are pictured, with one construction given in detail (Enka warp, 4-shaft plain weave, spun silk nub filling). It also discusses consumer prejudice, trade names and shrinkage problems.
