It Takes More Than Ink
and Paper To Turn Out
GOOD PRINTING
Almost anyone, with a little experience,
can set type and turn out job printing 1 ,
but the results would hardly be pleasing
to you, Mr. Prospective Customer.
For it takes far more than ink and paper
to turn out printing- that would be a
credit to you and your business.
To turn out quality printing- a number of
things must be taken into consideration.
First, there's the man who sets the type.
He must know his job thoroughly; must
use good judgment in selecting the style
and size of type that will give the best
effect. Then there's the pressman, upon
whom rests the entire responsibility for
the looks of the job. No ragged or blotted
lines, no slurred letters must be allowed.
The printed sheet must be clean and
neat.
Quality printing also depends upon the
paper and the ink. A cheap grade paper
may spoil the appearance of the entire
job. An inferior ink can do the sama
We use only the best. Our printers are
experts and take pride in the jobs they
turn out.
We do quality printing.
