Philadelphia: Mackellar, Smiths and Jordan, 1885. Octavo. Fifteenth edition enlarged. 384pp., (6)pp. publisher's ad, illustrated. The present edition has been abridged and condensed in some respects, and considerably enlarged in others. As it stands at present, it will be found the most practical manual of printing extant. The pages have been reset in a type that finds much favour in the eyes of admirers of fine typography. Special attention has been given in setting forth the functions and duties of the foreman and proof-reader, so that the operations of an office may be prosecuted with efficiency, comfort, and economy. A very nice copy bound in brown cloth over beveled boards stamped in gilt, spine lettering gilt, gray floral endpapers, all edges marbled, minor spots of wear to spine ends.
