If anyone would know about this oldie, I would put my money on Dick
Dapson of Anatech.  I just took his "origins of stains" workshop at NSH
and found that all our histo dyes/stains were originally used for the
textile industry.  He's done extensive research on stains and is a
wealth of information.  The website is www.anatechltdusa.com.  Phone
800-262-8324; 269-964-6450.
