Annual circular (43rd year, 1926-1927) of the Textile Department of the Pennsylvania Museum and School of Industrial Art in Philadelphia, known as the Philadelphia Textile School. It gives the school's history, administration, advisers, admission rules, fees and the day and evening courses of study: weave formation, fabric analysis, figured and Jacquard design, card cutting, warp preparation and weaving, cotton, wool, worsted and silk yarn manufacture, chemistry, dyeing and finishing. It also describes the laboratories and equipment, with photographs of weaving, dyeing and finishing rooms, and lists alumni with their positions. Many pages of advertisements from textile machinery makers, yarn spinners, dyers and finishers, and mills are bound in.
