Charles O Neill Illustrator: NA: Cosmo Dictionary of Dyeing & Calico Printing, Cosmo Publications 2008 ISBN: 9788130706634

New Hardcover NA This work is intended by the Author to form a practical handbook of reference upon all the chemical substances and processes in use among dyers and calico printers. While written from a practical point of view, it takes a middle course betw-een the generalities of high science and the technicalities of pure practice. Avoiding, on the one hand, the applications of chemical principles which are not yet clearly perceived, and, on the other, a detailed description of processes which would be either in unintelligible or unnecessary, the Author hopes he has produced a book which may be profitably consulted by all who are either interested or practically engaged in printing and dyeing. The claims which the Author has to be heard upon these subjects rest upon his familiar acquaintance with calico printing, acquired by nine yearsaEUR service in very extensive establish-ment, and upon a further professional experience of three years, which has brought him into contact with nearly all styles of dyeing. Printed Pages: 510. First edition

One of the earliest discussions on the problem of copyright for patterns and designs. The author, himself a calico printer, argues for the introduction of similar legislation against foreign competition, as that which already existed to protect London printers from piracy and undercutting by Lancashire mills. The first item is also an attractive pattern book, depicting the possible variants of one calico design in a series of precise colour printed plates..
