Book excerpt: Excerpt from Crompton and Knowles Loom Works Crompton & Knowles Loom Works takes pleasure in presenting to its customers and textile manufactures this catalog in which may be found illustrations of many of the different varieties of looms manufactured. All the looms shown are in general use for weaving various fabrics of cotton, woolen, worsted, silk, etc. Those familiar with the development of the textile industry will appreciate the value of our long experience in designing and building weaving machinery. The inventive skill and genius of the best minds in the textile industry have produced these highly developed looms which may be found in many mills throughout the country. The development of these looms has been made possible by bringing together under one management a number of independent companies formerly engaged in building looms, dobbies, jacquards, etc., for the manufacture of textile fabrics. Among the prominent companies now incorporated with the Crompton & Knowles Loom Works arc the Crompton Loom Works, established in 1851 under the name of George Crompton; The Knowles Loom Works, founded in 1863 under the name of L. J. Knowles and Brother; the George W. Stafford Mfg. Company, the Gilbert Loom Company, the M. A. Furbush and Sons Machine Co., the A. H. Steele Loom Co. and the Crompton-Thayer Loom Company. It is the purpose of this catalog to present some of the principal types of looms which we manufacture, but it is impossible to describe all the distinguishing features regarding the looms, in a catalog of this kind. Correspondence in reference to any of the looms or weaving problems is solicited and we shall always be glad to furnish all the information possible regarding the looms we build.
