Practical Printing and Binding. A Complete Guide to the Latest Developments in All Branches of the Printer's Craft

Hardcover. Practical Printing and Binding. Foxing to end inside covers. Slightly sunned spine. Rolled spine. Red cloth with gilt lettering. The aim of this book has been to give, in a single volume, expert practical instruction in every branch of printing, so that apprentices, learners and craftsmen generally may increase their knowledge of the latest methods employed. Printers as a class are anxious to learn more of their craft than the work in which they are immediately concerned. The compositor wishes to know something of the machine-minder's work, and vice versa; the lithographer and the gravure printer appreciate the benefit of knowing something of the work of the departments which provide the material for transferring to plate or cylinder. The greater the sharing of knowledge among the numerous branches of the trade, the greater will be the efficiency of the industry; and it is believed that this book will be of great practical value in this connection. Illustrated. 448 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. Academic and Scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Educational Reference Literature.).…
