✦ Synopsis
This dictionary is a compilation of more than 4,000 names of fibers, yarns, fabrics and garments, obtained originally from the official Gazette of the U. S. Patent office (1934 to 1947). It is divided into three sections. The first section lists alphabetically the brand names with their serial numbers, dates of registration, owners, etc. The second section classifies the most important names under several headings--yarns, rayon piece goods, cotton piece goods, synthetics, silks and others. Part three contains an alphabetical list of the companies owning the brand names, with a cross-reference to the page on which they appear in the first section.
This handy b~)ok should prove of definite value to manufacturers, convertors, buyers, patent attorneys, and shbuld be readily applicable whenever questions of ownership, invention and registration arise.
