Abundant Stocks, of which the examples listed are but a few are offered in this sale. Flond-Blocked Linens and Cretonnes IN 50-INCH WIDTH We offer some 50 patterns and colorings of these very desirable fabrics in n ran?c of exclusive designs, made especially for ourselves many at prices lower than we have ever sold them, even in pre-war days. We believe that this is tho most important offering of its kind ever placed before the public. The art of printing designs on cloth with a stamp or block dates back to the 13th century. Early in the 17th century the hand block procesa of printing on Linen or Cotton was introduced In Europe and a century later a factory was started in France (examples of its productions bring porsesatsd today by many of the world's great museums). Since that time these charming fabrics have never ceased to b? in favor. It is interesting to note that the hand block printing process of today is identical with that of nearly two and a half centuries ago. The design is carved in high relief upon built-up blocks of suitable wood, which vary in num? ber according to the length of the design and the number of colors to be produced. The printer carefully centers his pattern, dipn his bloc!: into the color, and transfers it to the prepared cloth, hammering the block with a short "maul" to secure a good impression. This he repeats with the various blocks, one for each color, until the pattern is complote. In printing CO yards of a pattern requiring about 80 blocks ,the printer and his assistant walk nearly eight miles and the blocks are laid nearly 1-1,000 times. The Advantages of Hand-Block Printing Are: The artistic and attractive appearance, due to the fascinating irregularities of hand work as against the, monotonous sameness of a machine. The greater artistic? expression due to lack of limitation as to number of col? ors employed, and length of pattern. Machine-printed patterns are usually limited to only 12 colors and 20 inches in length of pattern. Better penetration of color into the fabric, resulting in greater permanence of color.
