Practical apprenticeship for printers; suggestions concerning the training of apprentices for the printing crafts

United Typothetae of America. Department of Education · 1921 · Chicago · 8 pictures

This 1921 Chicago publication by the United Typothetae of America's Department of Education offers suggestions for training printing apprentices, aimed at employers and trade schools. The four photographs, printed sideways on the page, show large multi-storey brick buildings with rows of windows, a tree-lined campus, and a domed or towered institutional building set among trees. A designer might take from them the plain, documentary look of early twentieth-century institutional architecture photographed in grey halftone.
