Excerpt from The Practice of Presswork
The object of this book is to give the shortest, best and most practical methods of Presswork, with the interest of the Pressman in view, and to burden his mind as little as possible with unnecessary technicalities, and with those details which do not bear directly upon every-day occurance.
Inasmuch as the subject matter is to a large extent made up of hard facts, the task of remembering a string of these confronts the pressman, as soon as he has mastered the very rudiments of this intricate, mechanical process, and aspires to become more proficient.
The pressman must not only be a mechanic, but an artist as well, and rise to the highest places in his calling. It is hoped this book will be of service to all who are interested or engaged in the printing trades, as well as to the pressmen, for whom this is especially written.
The want of such a book has long been felt. The mechanical details and mysterious methods of make-ready can not be readily acquired unless the pressman has had actual experience in many establishments under men who are proficient in their various specialties, due to the specialization of particular kinds of work.
