The dyeing of textile fabrics
The Dyeing of Textile Fabrics by J. J. Hummel, published in London and New York by Cassell & Company in 1888, is a technical manual on dyeing cloth for working dyers and mill engineers. Its pictures are plain engineering line drawings of machines such as a yarn cleaning machine, a tramming machine for twisted yarn, a vertical drum vat and a steam apparatus, useful to a designer wanting mechanical, industrial-age linework with dense hatching and labelled parts.
