Cyclopedia of textile work : a general reference library on cotton, woolen and worsted yarn manufacture, weaving, designing, chemistry and dyeing, finishing, knitting, and allied subjects
A multi-volume technical reference on cotton, woolen, and worsted manufacture issued in 1911 by the American School of Correspondence in Chicago for mill workers and students taking home-study courses. The plates are line-engraved sectional and elevation drawings of dyeing kettles, boilers, belt-driven machinery, and foundation pits, with hatched masonry, stippled interiors, and lettered part keys that suit diagrammatic collage, technical pattern fills, and cutaway-style illustration.
