Knecht, Edmund, 1861-1925 · 1912 · London : C. Griffin & Co. · 11 pictures

A technical textbook by Edmund Knecht, published in London by C. Griffin & Co. in 1912, covering the principles and practice of textile printing, its machinery, and dyes for a trade and student readership. The pictures are line diagrams of printing machinery, including a roller mechanism, a dye trough with rollers, and a mechanical assembly with levers and shafts, plus a repeating geometric block-print pattern of dots, loops and lens shapes that a designer could adapt for surface pattern.
