Richard Holt is a complete gent. He sent me these two lovelies. As a result, by mid-February, my penmanship will be improved ten-fold. I'll be scribing wistful and poetic correspondence like nobody's business.
Printing Processes is superbly illustrated and, as you'd expect from Ladybird circa 1970, explains with absolute clarity how it was done way back then…when letterpress and the likes of the Linotype/Monotype machines were still fresh in the memory.
Glad you liked them Richard, the Print Processes one is a particular favourite of mine.
They don't make them like that any more...

Wow – I used to have the handwriting book. My Mum bought it for me to get me to write neatly. Ah memories...
