Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bulletin of the Pennsylvania Museum, Vol. 9: April, 1911 In 1809, Oberkampf introduced a new process whereby the patterns were reserved in white, in a colored ground. In 1818, another improvement had been made in the manufacture by the introduction of a machine with two cylinders, by means of which two colors could be printed simultaneously. At the beginning of the nineteenth century printed fabrics had become quite fashionable for furniture coverings and hangings. The designs, of historical and literary character, were well drawn and engraved and produced in attractive and permanent colors. The subjects were such as were popular at the time, among which were The Farm, Paul and Virginia, and The Four Quarters of the World.
