The Monotype System: A Book for Owners Operators of Monotypes (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Monotype System: A Book for Owners Operators of Monotypes

We would be ungrateful indeed if we did not make record of our deep obligation to all students of the monotype System, both owners and operators of machines, whose methods and suggestions have been included in this book. We may well say that the monotype System has been made by printers for printers; the makers of the monotype claim no credit for the discovery of new processes; they have but perfected new methods of using the processes that have stood the test of time. The printing industry was born when movable types were invented, and as long as quality and economy count in that great industry movable types will be used and new applications will be found for the monotype System.
