reprodepot fabrics Index
The catalog index ran alphabetically through a very large catalog, mixing fabric categories, individual prints, sewing patterns, notions, books, ribbons, buttons, household pieces, and gifts in one continuous list.
The index mixed broad departments with individual colorways, tools, patterns, and household goods. The entries here emphasize that variety and allow readers to move between category lists and individual items.

How the catalog index worked
Category and item names were interfiled, so a reader could jump from a broad department to a specific colorway and back again. The index includes the fabric department, dots category, Forties and Fifties category, Japanese import category, and several individual items.
For broader textile context, the Victoria and Albert Museum textile collection offers an authoritative view across printed, woven, and embroidered objects.
