Sobre este artículo
Somerdale, New Jersey: The Discovery Collection, 1995. 80 pp, oblong (9" H x 11 3/4" D). Profusely illustrated with b&w and colour photographs, reproductions. "As well as providing more than three hundred illustrations of bobbins and much more besides, this book will explain how and why bobbins were invented as well as some of the machines and mills in which they served to produce, in volumes never previously imagined possible, the yarns and fabrics of the modern world. True, the humble wooden bobbin is today looked upon as an antique, and progress has made it largely extinct in modern manufacturing, but the degree of technological advancement that it represented in its day is as remarkable as anything that has happened since." Contents: Appreciating Bobbins; Life Before Bobbins; Mechanization Approaching; The Great Textile Mills; Changing Fortunes; What is a Bobbin?; Different Bobbins at Work; The Collector's View; Raw Material to the Finished Product; Weaving; Refinements to the Woven Fabric: The Silk Industry; Shuttles; Glossary. Interior - clean and tight with no previous ownership marks. Exterior - minor waviness to the book, minor wear at the top of the spine.. Not Signed. Soft Cover with Self Flaps. Very Good+.
