    Great Video on Letterpress Printing
    June 2, 2008

    The Internet Archive website has a great selection of historical documents and videos, one of which we have highlighted previously on the blog (How to use a composing stick). We just came across this video which is part of a series of vocational films made in 1947. The movie covers the opportunities and training available in the field of printing and highlights hand typesetting, linotype, monotype, display, make-up and layout.
