Printle: A Printing Word Game from Metal Type


Mechanic

I found this web site for "THE NEW LINOTYPE" when I was brousing, looking for recent, post 1960. technical manuals on Linotype and Intertype machines. As it is for a machine dated 1890 I found it interesting, but not very helpfull.

Very interesting article, I might put some of it on the main site.

I noticed that in those early days they called their slugs linotypes!
