Linotype

DateFriday, November 5, 2010 at 10:45AM

The linotype is such a beautiful, complex, and useful machine.  Revolutionized printing. Does the job, but requires an operator who is both mindful and skilled. If I wasn't so invested in forest ecology, I'd probably be a printer. [NOTE: A nice, detailed article about the linotype typesetting machine can be found here].
