This Jazz Age weaving manuscript notebook complete with weave formation design plates fabric samples and instructions offer a remarkable and invaluable artifact of how a young American textile designer and weaver received training at the famed Philadelphia Textile School now Philadelphia University during the 1920s. These course books were judged on completeness and the aspiring weaver’s skill in presenting the details about the instruction as well as their abilities in running the machinery required to produce the cloth. This manuscript notebook includes Schumann’s detailed plates and notes on producing color effect on the plain weave creating Broken Twills Crowfoot Satins Checked & Figured Broken Twills Entwining Twills Basket Weaves and Broken Satins. The extensive manuscript notes detail the loom instructions how many lines are required composition and more in producing the assorted effects. Because of the poor quality of United States textiles exhibited at the Centennial Exhibition in 1876 the Philadelphia Textile Manufacturers pushed for a formalized vocational school to train weavers designers and textile workers. In 1884 it became part of the Pennsylvania Museum and School of Industrial Art with 81 students enrolled by 1885 and by 1894 the School of Textiles added a Department of Wool Carding & Spinning and a Department of Cloth Finishing and Design. By the 1920s the Philadelphia Textile School was offering extensive three-year textile courses chemistry and dyeing courses as well as design courses in cottons woolens worsteds silks Jacquard design and more. Schumann 1906-1967 was the son of Hugo Schumann founder and owner of the Maid Hosiery Mills in Reading PA through the opening decades of the 20th century for whom he worked with until after World War II as designer and sales executive.

Black pebbled cloth gilt lettering on front cover & spine minor shelfwear slight rubbing w/ notes clippings & postcard laid-in from the library of Elisa Serin b. 1887 silk weaver married to Maurice Serin foreman of the Allentown PA plant of Broad Silk Mills. Early printing of this scarce and important guide intended to provide reference for 19th-century weaving students and textile manufacturers. Posselt 1858-1921 emigrated from Austria after managing his father’s textile mills and was a designer in mills all over New England and Pennsylvania. He became the first director in 1884 of the first successful textile school in the U.S. and later became editor of the Textile Record of North America the foremost journal on textile design and manufacturing at the end of the 19th-Century. Although his many works on textile machinery and manufacturing are now primarily of historical interest this well-illustrated work on weaving and loom design is still relevant and considered some of the most important books on textile design ever published.

ref. 33036701Hang Zhou n.d. ca 1901-1920 Hang Zhou Qi Wen Si Zi Chang Zi Zao. Color silk weaving 84 x 19 cm. stapled to a wooden board gold wood frame the weaving has 1 spot at top center 2.5 x 2 cm. & a few other rubbed through spots else solid. THE SUBJECT: This is a very rare unusual and lovely item. It is a machine woven illustration of the inside of the Beijing Imperial Palace Gu gong & Forbidden City Zijincheng. Especially showing the area around the Summer Palace and Lake Kunming. It shows people in row boats on the lake with the lovely marble boat as the background as well as Jingshan Park also known as "Prospect Hill." DATE These are very obscure and most didn't last from such a long time ago. While there is a date stamp in red on the wooden mounting board lower right-hand corner it is very feint and hard to read anything other than "Nian" year & Yueh month but on numbers visible. We estimate this to have been done some where about 1901-1920's after the end of the Boxer Rebellion. COLOPHON/TITLES: On the left margin is the publisher's name: HANG ZHOU QI WEN SI ZI CHANG ZI ZAO: HANGZHOU SILK WEAVING FACTORY. Also on the left margin is "7 x 32" which likely refers to the size of the item in inches which are actually 7 3/8 x 33 inches when stretched and stapled to the backing board. The right margin states the title in Chinese: BEIJING WAN SHOU SHAN QUANJING: PANORAMA OF BEIJING WAN SHOU MOUNTAIN. CONDITION: The work has a hole at the center top margin in the sky and has a gray paper mounted behind the weaving to keep it intact. There are also some minor number of to her small rubs here and there. Because this item was stretched- mounted with staples this caused some "pull" to the fabric. At the left one-third of the weaving the sky is showing some stress lines going horizontally across to the center as is the right one third sky portion as well. Otherwise the work is nicely intact and not damaged. The old staples are copper plated therefore no rust is evident. We strive to point out every flaw of significance but commonly over describe such flaws. Overall and by and large this is a very nice stable and obscure item. Few have survived the ravages of time and attrition rate. FRAMING / BACKING BOARD: The backing board is 100% wood consisting of 7 panels glued on end to form one single and long board. Over this is a gold-painted wooden frame consisting of thin wood with mitered corners which acts as a mat to cover the edges and staples. This frame/mat wood is placed over the textile weaving and is therefore ready for a larger glazed frame. There is a silver label adhered to the gold frame at the bottom center it reads CHI WEN SILK WEAVOMG CO. and has Chinese characters above that name. Nice association with the weaving. RARITY. This and other works from the Chi Wen Silk Weaving Co. are quite rare and seldom found on the market. We have seen one other which is a panoramic view of Shanghai and the Huang Po river. Please inquire for information. SHIPPING: Being an extra long item appropriate extra shipping & packing charges will apply. Please inquire prior to ordering to request shipping cost information. We reserve the right to ship this by Federal Express as they are the most reliable & dependable shipper for delicate and large items. . unknown
