Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from How to Make Money in the Printing Business: A Book for Master Printers Who Realize That There Is a Practical Side to the Art, and Who Desire to Know the Surest Methods of Making Profits
There are in existence about two thousand different books pertaining to printing and typography, and per haps as many more that are partly devoted to these subjects. Of this large number, only a bare half dozen treat of the business management of a printing office, and its successful operation for the purpose of yielding that profit for which men do business. In the half dozen there is not a total of a hundred pages directed toward the theme Of the present work. It seems to me that this is sufficient excuse for bringing this book before the printing trade. For years the cry has gone up from the followers of Guttenberg that there is no money in the printing business, that competition takes all the margin out of the work, and that the cost for renewal of plants has eaten up the profits.
