At the time the idea of "repeating textures" was so innovative that new techniques were invented to create these images. In fact Pixar took out several patents for the technology, developed by David DiFrancesco, which you can read more about here Method for Borderless Mapping of Texture Images.
Updated for 2017
The texture library has been upgraded and now includes 16-bit bump (roughness) and normal maps. While created in the 1990's, this library still has many potential uses. Enjoy.
