Bleaching and calico-printing : a practical manual
A practical manual on bleaching and calico-printing by George Duerr, published in London in 1896 by Charles Griffin & Company for dyers and textile printers. Its pictures are swatch plates of striped cloth samples, each labelled with a dye number and a reduction strength, in shades of green, yellow, brown, black, purple and red, which a designer could use as a reference for colour gradations and stripe spacing.
