Immedial brown
A 1910 New York dye sample book issued by the Cassella Color Company, showing how its Immedial dyes colour cotton. The first page shows rows of brown and black dyed cotton swatches labelled with dye percentages, and the second shows woven cotton fabric patterns in stripes, checks and plaids. A designer could draw on the swatch grids for tonal range of browns and blacks, and on the woven plaid and stripe layouts for textile pattern ideas.
