Modern automation dictates what can and cannot be mailed. Sizes, image placement, colors, and aspect ratios must now be considered in the design and printing of an envelope. It is only an envelope, but it is the oldest, most loyal, and most noble messenger of humankind. The purpose of Printing's Past is to preserve the motivating spirit of pride in the printing heritage, the ethic of work and craftsmanship, and the appreciation of the contributions of a free press. Free reprints and information on other Printing's Past stories in book form is available.
Correspondence is welcome and appreciated.
