Oregon Custom Weavers Guild Linen Research Notebook, 1950View associated digital content.

The Oregon Custom Weavers Guild Linen Research Notebook represents the textile research done by Oregon Custom Weavers founders, and Oregon State College employees, Jesse E. Harmond, USDA agricultural engineer and head of Small Seed Harvesting and Processing Investigations, and Joan Patterson, Professor of Clothing, Textiles, and Related Arts. The collection is comprised of a notebook containing samples of Oregon linen subjected to various strength, fading, and shrinkage tests; and tow linen color samples of different linear densities, or lea.

Due to its fragility, it is strongly recommended researchers use the digital copy of the notebook, which is available upon request.
