	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Alb
		In point of material the alb must be made of linen (woven of flax or hemp); hence cotton or wool are forbidden.
		It has been contended that in many cases such designations must be regarded as referring to the apparels with which the albs were adorned; also that the albs of silk, velvet, etc. were probably tunicles or dalmatics.
		But there is a residue of cases which it is impossible to explain satisfactorily, and the prevalence at least of blue albs seems to be proved by the miniatures of early manuscripts.

	Alb - LoveToKnow 1911
		Albs were originally quite plain, but about the 10th century the custom arose of ornamenting the borders and the cuffs of the sleeves with strips of embroidery, and this became common in the 12th century.
		The equivalent of the alb in the ancient Churches of the East is the sticharion (art bpeov) of the Orthodox Church (Armenian shapik, Syrian Kutina, Coptic stoicharion or tuniah).
		It is worn girdled by bishops and priests in all rites, by subdeacons in the Greek and Coptic rites.

	Alb - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The alb, one of the liturgical vestments of the Roman Catholic, Anglican and many Protestant churches, is an ample garment of white linen coming down to the ankles and usually girded with a cincture.
		Nowadays, the alb is the common vestment for all ministers at Mass, both clerics and laypersons, and is worn over street clothes or the Booty stank cassock and under any other special garments, such as the stole, dalmatic or chasuble.
		The shortening of the alb for use outside a church has given rise to the surplice and its cousin the rochet worn by canons and bishops.
