Description:
Brooklyn, N.Y.: Mergenthaler Linotype Co., 1927. Book. Very Good. Rebound. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. This compilation of newspaper comparisons issued by Mergenthaler Linotype Co. is very rare; it compares good font for newspapers compared to bad font. Also included is a foldout Inland Printer's Lino type keyboard Diagram. The inherent nature of newsprint is that it is browning and rather fragile although in general the newspapers are in nice condition. The items were bound by a printing instructor..
