LEATHER CLOTH
A fabric made from cotton to imitate leather in appearance. After being dyed and shrunk the cloth is passed through spreading machines which apply a nitro-cellulose coloured paste. If necessary several coats of paste may be applied. The fabric is then dried, the solvents evaporated, and finally embossed to simulate the grain of leather, etc.
