1930s colour printing technique : Lister's of Bradford, West Yorkshire - knitting wool
From a 1930s printers almanac showing examples of colour separation and printing as being used for high quality advertising. This quite lucious illustration is intended to seel the multi-coloured woollen yarns available fromt he famous Bardford concern of Lister's. Lister's originated in silk production but diversified into other fibres especially the locally important wool industry and became known for fine velvets as well as heavier moquettes. The paper label design is lovely with the very '30s image of the modern lady golfer!
