A monograph on albinism in man, written by Karl Pearson, Edward Nettleship and Charles Howard Usher and published in London by Cambridge University Press in 1911, is a scientific study of human skin colour and albinism for medical and biological readers. The single plate shows a pelt laid flat on a dark ground, labelled October coat, with a dense soft fur whose pale and dark banding suggests seasonal colour change a designer could borrow for natural texture studies.
