Saturday, September 23rd is Linotype Day at the Museum of Printing!

Linotype Day will be a hot-metal extravaganza with live demos on our Linotype and Ludlow. Here’s an overview of the activities:

The Linotype is one of the mainstay methods to set type, especially small-size body text, for newspapers, magazines, and posters from the late 19th century to the 1970s and 1980s.
