The production of the printed catalogue; the preparation, printing, and publication of catalogues of libraries, museums, art galleries, publishers, booksellers and business houses. With a chapter on the monotype machine, and an appendix of type faces
A technical manual from 1910 by Alexander J. Philip, published in London by R. Atkinson, explaining how catalogues for libraries, museums, publishers and businesses were prepared, printed and published, with a chapter on the monotype machine. Its pictures are plain black-and-white engravings of composing and casting machinery, with one wood-engraved printing press. A designer could take from them the mechanical forms of early typesetting equipment, shown in clear side views on pedestal stands.
