I ALFRED WHOWELL of the firm of Horridge and Company of Raikes Bleach
Works, Great Lever near Bolton in the County of Lancaster, Bleachers, do hereby
declare the nature of my Invention for " IMPROVEMENTS IN THE MANNER OF
STAMPING OR PRINTING HEADINGS OF WOVEN FABRICS," to be as follows:-
This invention relates to improvements in the manner of stamping or printing
headings of woven fabrics wherein degrees of variety and effect are produced never
before attained in stamping or printing headings of woven fabrics in bleach works.
The ground work of the heading is composed entirely of a quantity of plain or
other lines, such as, zig-zag, diagonal, or diamond pattern in any kind of shade and
color as desired to meet the demands of the trade.
Hitherto the ground work of the heading has been provided with blanks to
receive the necessary prints, patterns, and names, whereas by this invention the
entire ground work of the heading is stamped alike in one operation, the pattern
being stamped or printed with liquid gold or bronze mixture which covers the
ground lines and produces effects never before attained. If desired other liquid
colors may be used with corresponding effects. The colors are stamped or printed
by hand or power by the ordinary appliances.
