Textiles; a handbook for the student and the consumer
A 1926 handbook by Mary Schenck Woolman, published in New York by Macmillan, written for students and consumers learning about textile fabrics. Its pictures are plain black-and-white halftone and line illustrations: a magnified fibre drawing, rotated photographs of looms and woolen manufacturing machinery, and a close view of woven cloth structure, useful to a designer for the look of mill machinery and the grid of plain weave.
