in each Matrix Case
Two hundred and twenty-five Matrices are combined in the
Matrix Case to suit the work to be done: The Monotype user
does not scheme to change the job to fit the machine he
makes the Matrix Case fit the job. For example, Roman caps,
small caps, lower case, figures, and points, with Italic caps,
lower case, figures, and points, may be carried in the same
Matrix Case; or a Boldface, extended or condensed, may be
substituted for the Italic; or, by omitting the diphthongs,

Some Matrix Case Arrangements

Combinations of Monotype Faces


The Monotype is the machine that took the limitations out of
machine composition. Because of its completely flexible Matrix system it gives the printer all the economies of machine
composition, while preserving all the freedom of hand composition. Below are shown just a few of the many possible
combinations of Monotype faces.

Nor can words cast on these machines be


as closely spaced as Monotype set words, because the
spaces in line cast composition are made by metal
wedges placed between the letter Molds for the different words of the line; furthermore, since the same
wedges are used with different size faces, the spacing
is not proportional to the size type used.
The Monotype produces, at will, either of these two
kinds of composition, see Figs. 9 and 10, page 19: The

To understand the commercial value of the ability
of the Monotype to thus "open-up" faces by putting
white space between the letters composing the words,
we must appreciate clearly that there are two totally

is, to increase the number of ems per thousand keystrokes, a simple adjustment of the Keyboard and
the Casting Machine is all that is necessary. Automatically, then, the Monotype "stretches" the face,
it up by putting more white space between
the letters and wider spaces between the words.
In short, the Monotype user can furnish at will (a)

foundry type, perfectly spaced and justified, or (b) for

Composition Matrices
For Faces Twelve-point and Smaller

25 These Matrices, for casting type in automatically justified lines, are carried in the Matrix Case (Fig.
11), which holds 225 Matrices arranged in fifteen rows,
each containing fifteen Matrices. The Matrices in
these rows are carried on combs, as shown in Fig. 12,

only necessary to take off the back of the case and lift
out the combs, make the desired change or substitute

Matrices from injury.

26 Full Fonts of Composition Matrices consist of


a Matrix Case containing 225 character Matrices and
blanks, for quads and spaces, arranged for any standard combination: For example, Roman caps, lower
case, and small caps with Italic caps and lower case,
two fonts of figures, points, and signs; or, the Italic
may be replaced with a normal or extended Boldface;
or, by omitting the small caps, diphthongs, and a few
signs, six alphabets may be carried in the Matrix Case,
viz., caps and lower case for Roman, Italic, and Boldface,
with two fonts of figures.

Italic faces have the same Matrix Case positions

for the great variation in Boldfaces four different
arrangements are used (Cl, C2, C3, and C4); the
arrangement for which each face is designed is printed

"Frea%' Matrix Case Arrangements are spearrangements made by the ingenious (?), who disregard utterly all principles of the Monotype System;
for example, arrangements requiring that faces be cast
on sets smaller than the set given for the face in this
Specimen Book. Such arrangements mean a loss of
profit, a source of endless confusion, bad work, and
reduced output; they should not be tolerated.
31
Set: The set of a face indicates whether it is extended or condensed and is expressed by stating, in
points, the width of an eighteen-unit character of the

Thus, a seven-set face is one in which the cap


is seven points -wide.
The set of all
Composition Matrices is given on the specimen sheet.

Display Figure Matrices, or "double" Matrices, are made for figures as large as thirty-six-point,
and are carried in the Matrix Case with Composition
Matrices. The body of the figure is cast the same size
as the type with which the figure is used, while the face
of the figure (cast on a platform) overhangs this body
and rests upon high quads in the line, or lines, above.
These Display Figure Matrices are the same width as

SPECIAL MATRICES
145 The Monotype is used for an infinite variety of
composition, dictionaries, vocabularies, text and reference books, codes, and other publications requiring
special accents, diacriticals, and signs. It would be
impossible for us to supply our customers with up-todate specimens of the special characters we carry in

stock for we are making new ones every day. Indeed,


the problem of keeping indexes and cross-indexes for
thousands of special Matrices is so intricate that we
keep these records only at our factory in Philadelphia.
146 Consult the Factory at Philadelphia: If you
want anything not shown in this Specimen Book, please
do not assume that your wants cannot be quickly
supplied. Write or telegraph us at Philadelphia, giving
full details of your requirements: Always give complete information about the character you require if
you cannot describe it draw an accurate picture of
it, and specify the series number and point-size of the
face with which it is to be used, the set on which the
face is to be cast, and the size of the unit-row in which
the Matrix is to be carried.

We

take particular pride in the equitable policy


147
of charging for special Matrix work which we originated over ten years ago. It had been the universal
practice to charge the customer for whom a special

Probable Sale Determines Price: "As low a

152

price as possible; we estimating the probable future sale


of special Matrices and taking a fair share of the risk of
being paid by the future sale of these special Matrices for
the work of designing and making them." An examination of the special Matrices shown in this book will

make

this clear.

In some cases we charge several dollars for a


special Matrix that costs no more to make, after the
designing, pattern and punch work have been done, than
the similar standard Matrix shown on the same sheet.

the special Matrix is so similar to the standard Matrix
that obviously the special Matrix was made to suit the
whims or the artistic fancies of one of our customer's
customers, who pays, or ought to pay, for having his

gratified.

Don't Try to Guess Special Matrix Prices: If


you do not find in this book the special Matrix you require, please do not assume that we do not have it or
that the price will be prohibitive. Write and give us
the exact details of what you want (please read ^146
before writing), and we will promptly give you the price.
155 A Lower Price for Duplicates of Special Matrices: To the customer ordering two or more special
Matrices for the same character (whether at the same
154

time or the second Matrix after the purchase of the


first) we furnish the duplicate special Matrices at a
lower price. Thus, if we make a special Matrix to
order for Customer A, when Customer B wants that
same special Matrix he pays the same price as Customer A, but either Customer A or Customer B can
obtain duplicates of this special Matrix at a lower
price.

148

Our Plan of Charging for Special Matrices

is

based upon these principles:


First: As low a price as possible; we estimating the
probable future sale of special Matrices and taking a fair
share of the risk of being paid by the future sale of these
special Matrices for the work of designing and making
them.

Second: The same price to everybody for the same


special Matrix.
Third: No "entangling alliances;" we never sell the
exclusive use of any Matrix, for our designing facilities
are maintained for the benefit of all Monotype users.

We

cannot guarantee any prices to be inflexwe reserve the right to change any
Matrix prices. Thus, if the demand warrants we may
reduce the price of a Matrix; or, if we have overestimated the demand, we may increase the price.

156 Caution: The responsibility for obtaining this


lower price for duplicates of special Matrices (1[155)
we must place on you, because it is impossible for
us to go back in our files and see whether you ever
bought previously a particular special Matrix, before
we enter your order. If you want the special price
on the duplicate of a special Matrix you have bought
before, ask for the special price on your order; say,
"Charge this special Matrix at reduced price, it is a
duplicate of Matrix you furnished us on your invoice
No. E78156." Note: you must give us the number of
our invoice, not your purchase order.
157 To remind you to get the advantage of the reduced price for duplicates of special Matrices (1[156)
we stamp all invoices for special Matrices not charged
at reduced prices thus

"Duplicates of this special Matrix will be furnished to you at reduced price.


If you ever
bought this special Matrix before, return this invoice with the invoice for the first purchase of
this Matrix; we will reduce this price to the price
for duplicates of special Matrices."

twelve-point and smaller, consists of 225 character

Matrices and blanks for quads and spaces (1126) but


simply because 225 separate Matrix units happen to
be combined in the same Matrix Case is no reason
for uniting them by a symboling system that would
;

designate these Matrix units as parts of the same font.


For the next job some of these Matrix units may be
replaced with other Matrices.

The

our symboling system is to classify


and designate Matrices so that Monotype users may obtain not only the fullest advantage of our flexible Matrix
system, but also avoid buying Matrices for which they
have no real need.

object of

Classification of Characters: Certain characters must essentially be used together; for example,
confusion would result from attempting to form an
alphabet of characters from different fonts. Therefore,
our symboling system provides for designating by the same
symbol only the Matrices that must be used together.

160

Size Designation: In the Monotype system


size of a type is quite independent of the
Matrix from which the face of this type is cast. "Faces

Point and Series Sides of the Matrix
to designate the body width of the
character, as explained in the following pages.
166 Note that there is no necessity for indicating on
the Matrices for an alphabet the width of these letters
because the set (If 3 1) of the Normal Wedge (1f37) used
with these Matrices determines the width of the letters,
and the specimen sheet for a face gives the minimum
set on which the face can be cast.

167

Definition of a Font: For purposes of symbolmore than eighty-four Mat-

ing, a font consists of not

ones for which they are designed. Therefore, our symboling system provides for designating the minimum width
body on which a Matrix can be cast without the face

overhanging the body.


162 Differentiating Similar Characters: For small
size letters it is very difficult to tell, by examining the
face of the letter, the difference between the Roman
lower case o, s, v, and x and the same small cap letters
for this Roman face. Therefore, our symboling system
provides for differentiating between similar letters that

apostrophes (') are furnished: one each on five-unit body
and one each on seven-unit; in the double opening-quote

Therefore, our symboling system provides for designating


these modified character Matrices so that they cannot be
confused with the similar standard Matrices.

the five-unit inverted comma comes before the seven-unit


(thus "), while for the double closing-quote the seven-unit
apostrophe comes first (thus "); the seven-unit characters
are used for single quotes for method of distinguishing these
quotes see If 182.
Note 2: The points common to both Roman and Italic
(.,-" ") are symboled as part of the Roman font.
Note 3: Small cap fonts consist of twenty-nine characters
(A to Z, &, JE, CE) these are used with the figures and points
of the corresponding Roman font.

forty-nine Matrices as follows:

We make

the above explanation of the principles of our Matrix symboling system because, alas!
too frequently people regard system, and especially
the explanation of a system, as evidence of complication. Because we take the trouble and go to the expense
of systematically symboling our Matrices is surely no
reason for assuming that the Monotype machine is complicated or that it takes a college professor to run it. We
164

symbol our Matrices to save time and money for our


customers. If any there be who dislike "high-brow
stuff" and have no time for "such frills," there is a
very simple remedy Skip all the following, forget all
about symbols, and buy duplicate Matrices.

lower case x of the No. 8 series cannot be confused with the small cap x of the same series because

Roman

170 We have made the small cap and the Italic


Matrices for almost all our Roman series, but when,
because of the similarity of faces, it has not been necessary to provide special small caps and Italic, the
most suitable small caps and Italic for use with this
Roman are shown on its specimen sheet.
Accents are symboled the same as the letters
171
of the fonts (If 165) with which they are used, except
that the number indicating the point-size is followed
by the letter A. Thus, a ten-point No. 1 5 Roman lowercase accent would be symboled Point Side 10A, Series
SidelSE.
172 Modified Characters (If 1 65) are symboled the
same as the corresponding standard characters they
replace in a font, except that the number indicating
the point-size is followed by the letter H and a number to indicate the way in which the character has
been modified For example, when the standard cap
C, a thirteen-unit character, is slightly compressed for
use in the twelve-unit row, the Matrix for this modified character is symboled Point Side 10H2, Series Side
38E. If we made a C for use in the fourteen-unit row,
this modification would be symboled 10H3-38E.
:

173 Figures belonging to Fonts: As explained in


HI 67, the figures made for use with a font are classified as part of the font and are symboled the same as
the letters of the font, with this exception: On the
Point Side the number indicating the point-size is
followed by the letter F for all but Old Style lining
figures, for which the letter G is used. Thus, the ten-

Roman Old Style hanging

figures for the No. 1 5


series are symboled Point Side 10F, Series Side 15E,
while the Old Style lining figures for use with this font

point

are symboled Point Side 10G, Series Side 15E. Note:


We always furnish with a font the figures shown on the
specimen sheet for the font unless otherwise instructed;
but, if specified in the order, we will substitute for Old
Style hanging figures either the lining figures or the Modern figures made for use with the font.

Figures not part of Fonts: Figures not part


of fonts, for example, 1, 2, 3, do not carry a letter
174

indicating the character of the face (H 1 68) on the Series


Side of the Matrix. Thus, the ten-point Boldface
figures shown in this paragraph are symboled Point
Side 10F, Series Side 31. The letter F is used on the
Series Side because they are modern figures; if they
were Old Style lining (not hanging) figures, the letter
G would be used instead of F. The number 31 on the
Series Side means that these figures are number 3 1 in
our fonts of special figures; they have no relation
whatever to our face No. 3 IE, for which the figures
are symboled 31 E on the Series Side of the Matrix.
The different point-sizes of the same set of special
figures are, of course, symboled the same on the Series
Side of the Matrix; thus the eight-point size of the
Boldface figures shown in this paragraph are symboled Point Side 8F, Series Side 31. The smallest

width body on which figures can be cast is determined


from the set factor, which is given for all figures shown
in the specimen sheets for figures.

175 Set Factor is the set multiplied by unit width


thus, the set factor of a character made for the tenunit row of eight-set is eighty (10X8 = 80). Knowing
the set factor and the set to be used, to determine the
proper unit-row for any character divide the set factor
;

be used. RULE: Given the set factor of a


determine for any set the unit-row of the Matrix Case in which to carry this Matrix.: divide the set
factor by the set to be used; the result is the unit-row required. If this result contains a fraction, use the next
larger unit-row. EXAMPLE: Set factor 80. Find the
unit-row in which to carry this Matrix in a Matrix
Case used with a nine-set Normal Wedge 80 ^-9 = 8.8,
therefore put the Matrix in the nine-unit row.

Symbols to Designate Width of Characters


176 There is no necessity to indicate minimum
body widths for any characters referred to heretofore

widths are indicated by the set of the face, which is always
given on the specimen sheet of the face (HI 66). For
figures not part of fonts, the minimum width body upon

Set-size

is

indicated, for signs, dashes, leaders,

and similar characters, by letters following the number


on the Point Side of the Matrix that designates the
point-size of the character; caps are used for whole
sets and lower case for fractions of a set, thus
:

Matrix marked Point Side 8Wa is an eight-point eightand-one-quarter-set character; 10Ub indicates a tenpoint ten-and-one-half-set character, and 7Xc mean
seven-point seven-and-three-quarter-set.
178 Unit Values are designated, for signs, dashes,
leaders, etc., by a lower case letter on the Series Side of
the Matrix; this letter indicating the unit value follows
the series number of the character, just as the letters
indicating the set-size follow the number for the pointsize on the Point Side of the Matrix, as explained in
the preceding paragraph.

Point Side 8Wb, Series Side 10Po. Note: If this sign
were of the same set as its point-size (8-point 8-set),
the o indicating eighteen units is omitted from the
Series Side, and the Matrix would be symboled Point
Side 8W, Series Side 10P; thus "point-set" characters
(those cast on square body) are easily identified because they carry no lower case letter on the Series Side
to indicate unit-row.

179 Inferior and Superior Fonts are symboled on


the Series Side of the Matrix, exactly the same as the
regular characters of the series to which these Matrices are inferior or superior, but designating letters

be-

cause such characters are of the same set as the series


to which they belong. Superior and inferior characters
are marked on the Series Side of the Matrix to indicate their unit value; the symboling of these characters will be clear from the following: A ten-point
superior cap, or figure, of the same design as the No.
8A series, and made for use with that face in the eightunit row, would be symboled Point Side 10B, Series
Side 8Ae; the B on the Point Side indicates a superior
cap and the e on the Series Side indicates that this
letter is carried in the eight-unit row (H 1 78) when used
with the 8A series. Similarly, an eight-point inferior
lower-case letter for the 8A series, for use in the fiveunit row, is marked Point Side 8E, Series Side 8Ab.
180 Opening and Closing Quotes: As explained
f 167 two sizes of these quotes are furnished with
Roman fonts; Italic uses the same quotes as Roman
and only one size of quotes is required for Boldfaces.
The five- and seven-unit quotes are distinguished by
the letters indicating unit sizes (H 1 78) being added to
the series symbol; b for the five-unit and d for the
seven-unit, thus: Five-unit quote for eight-point 8A
series is marked Point Side 8Wb, Series Side 8Ab.
Note: Since the same quotes may be used with differare marked on the Point Side
ent faces, the letters

Dashes: Designating letter, R. The ten-point


dash of the No.
series of dashes is symboled

Point Side 10U, Series Side 10R, the U indicating tenset (HI 77). The same dash for ten-point and eight
units of ten-and-one-quarter-set is marked Point Side
10Ub, Series Side
185 Leaders: Designating letter, R. All leaders, being driven to the same Matrix line, can be used with
Matrices of any point-size (H38), and consequently
there is no point-size for leaders; the only marks on
the Point Side are those required to indicate set. Thus,
a ten-set eighteen-unit leader of the No. 20 series of
leaders is marked Point Side U, Series Side 20R; the
letter o to indicate eighteen units is not required on
the Series Side (HI 78). The same kind of a leader
for ten units of nine-and-three-quarter-set would be
marked Point Side Vc, Series Side 20 Rg.
186 Brackets, Parentheses, Braces, and Piece
Braces: Designating letter, S. The ten-point bracket
of the No. 10 series of brackets made to cast on seven
units of ten-set is symboled Point SidelQV, Series Side
10Sd.

187 Cross-Rule Matrices (H43) Designating letT. The six-point six-set parallel oross (#) is symboled Point Side 6Y, Series Side T8E8; see specimen

Since these Matrices are usually made for point-set


(set-size same as point-size: 8-point 8-set), the letters
to indicate set-size (11177) and unit-row (If 178) are
rarely used of course, these letters would be used for
any borders and ornaments not point-set. A ten-point
ten-set border No. 15 in our series of borders would
be marked Point Side 10, Series Side 15N.

183 Logotypes: Designating letter, Q. The following applies to special logotypes like AM, and not to the
diphthongs and the "f" ligatures, or similar letter
combinations, for use with a particular font, which are

Recognizing that some printers desire to use a

The whole

history of type founding shows no more


achievement than the production by William
Caslon, of London, in the early eighteenth century, of

brilliant

what we now call the CASLON OLD STYLE type.


Caslon was not trained to the business of type foundbut "learned it of his own genuine inclination," as
seems to have been the case with many another famous
designer of types. But he came prepared. Paralleling
the experience of his famous predecessor of still two
centuries earlier Nicholas Jenson, of Venice, who was
an engraver of coins before he produced his excellent
fonts
Caslon had been apprenticed to an engraver of
ornaments on gun-barrels.
Printing, whose history is one of continuous alternation between good and bad periods, was at a low ebb
artistically when Caslon came on the scene. To quote
from Reed's
History of Old English Letter Foundries:
ing,

"A

marked that one is tempted to believe that the art of
glance

Caxton and Pynson and Day was rapidly becoming


what a contemporary satirist
"
terms 'brown sheets and sorry letter.
The actual birth of the CASLON OLD STYLE followed
an almost accidental circumstance. Caslon's first type
was an Arabic which he had cut for a New Testament
and Psalter for use in Eastern churches. To his specimen sheet of this face he had added his name as an imlost in a wilderness of

'

print, cut in Pica

Roman

characters.

From this, he was advised to cut the whole font of


Pica Roman. He did so, and the font thus produced
was

at once recognized as a masterpiece, excelling the

letters of other founders of his time.

The year

1722, however, is the date most memorable


Caslon history, for it marks the production of
what is said to be the first size actually cast English
(the nearest equivalent to our i4-point).
More than half a century later (1788) our great
in the

American printer-statesman, Benjamin Franklin, wrote,


in a letter to Caslon: "7 approve much of your Resolution not to send

your types abroad upon Credit. Their


Excellence will secure a sufficient Demand without it."

But America had not waited for Franklin to import the


Caslon type. It was apparently the staple during the preRevolution ary days ofthe Colonies, servi ng all purposes in
their printing world, from bill heads, broadsides, pamphlets, and newspapers, to Proclamations and copies of the

Page four

Declaration of Independence, and even to paper currency.


That Caslon type is securely bound up in the early history
of America, a visit to any library will demonstrate.

Old Style of Caslon had


covered itself with glory in this country before
even our grandfathers were old enough to be printers
that it has enjoyed a time-honored usefulness which no
other type in history can parallel.
But its popularity was not continuous. Near the
beginning of the Nineteenth century that style of types
we now call Moderns began to appear and to catch the
It will thus be seen that the

literally

popular fancy, and the CASLON OLD STYLE went gradually into partial eclipse, from which it did not emerge
until half a century later.
How it was revived is now a fairly familiar story.
The first William Caslon had long since passed away
when in 1843 tne Chiswick Press sought the Caslon
foundry's aid in selecting a type which would be appropriate for printing The Diary of Lady Willoughby, a
work of fiction, the period and diction of which were
supposed to represent an earlier fashion, and for which
the modern types would obviously be less suitable.
The original matrices were brought out from their
long retirement and selected for this work, and a small
font of Great Primer (i8-point) cast from them. The
results were so satisfying that eventually the Chiswick
Press was supplied with complete series of the old fonts.
In 1858, following upon this revival in England,
America entered into what might be called its second
Caslon phase. Formerly, all Caslon type used in this
country had been imported direct from London. But
now, the Johnson Type Foundry (MacKellar, Smiths
& Jordan Company) of Philadelphia, had fonts brought
to their foundry, from which they made electrotype
matrices.

CASLON OLD STYLE from this point


one of slow but steady weaving into the
fabric of modern American typography first into the
more dignified and literary forms, and latterly into the
popular forms of modern business and advertising. It

is

vividly recalled by those of us who spent our apprenticeship amid the welter of fantastic job types then so

popular. It is the story of a type that not only has


held its supremacy as a body letter, but has lived to
oust these types to an appreciable degree from the job
and the advertisement.
A definite impetus to the increasing popularity of the

CASLON OLD STYLE may be credited to the late Arthur


Turnure, who, as far back as 1882, published a magazine
called the Art Age, which strove for the restoration of
printing to its place as one of the arts; and who in 1892
selected the Caslon type for the dress of Vogue, established in that year.

This was the CASLON

OLD STYLE'S

introduction to the

magazine field, and was a fairly conspicuous event. In


acknowledging the order for the type, the foundry from
which it was purchased stated that no such large fonts
had been ordered for upwards of thirty years.

of the country started out to produce its own version


and to put its own interpretation upon what the Caslon
ought to be. And so, within a period of six or seven
years beginning at 1900, were produced Caslons in "recut," "bold," "lightface," and other inferior variations,
which were able to crowd their fine original model to a

of good typography, at a profit, under modern condiand under conditions of any period.
tions

As to the source from which Caslon derived the famous Old Style that bears his name, I cannot do better
than quote from an excellent and thorough article on
the subject by Mr. Walter Gilliss, which appeared in
the Graphic Arts for February, 1911:
"From certain characteristics in Caslon's types it
seems evident that he gave attention to the models of

Moxon, of whom the Rev. Rowe-Mores wrote: 'Moxon

But there have been a few discriminating printers
whose taste has held them to persistent use of the original Caslon
when it could be obtained. And in response
to the work of these few, it might be said that a third
Caslon phase had set in.
For now, in 1915, we find the original Caslon creeping

"And, too, we can trace the general form and style of


Caslon Old Style through all the long line of Romans,
back to the very earliest models. To be more explicit, it resembles closely the types cut by Christopher
van Dyck and used by Daniel Elzevir, which is shown
in the Specimen Sheet of March 5th, 1681.
It is also

many of the types in the 1693 Specimen


Book, of the Oxford University Type Foundry which
are believed to have been imported from Holland or
cast at Oxford from Dutch Matrices.
"Caslon also resembles the types of Plantin, and the
lower case of the Italic resembles the Italic found in
C. Salmasii Plinianae Exercitationes, printed by E.
Voskuyl in Utrecht, in 1689, and the Caslon capitals

type can be said that, if all other English types were


suddenly to disappear from the face of the earth, it
could successfully bear alone the burden of modern
print.

The

printing industry will have

a tremendous

"And, again, the Roman seems closely allied to the
Roman of Jenson used in the Eusebius of 1470, while
the lower case resembles more closely still the Roman
of Paul Manutius used in the Theodoreti Urbis Cyri,
Episcopi Invisiones Danielis Prophetae, printed in Rome
in 1562, whereas the capitals of the Roman which are
strictly Italian in feeling are much smaller than 'Caslon' capitals of a similar body."
// can scarcely be gainsaid that the linking up of this
splendid CASLON OLD STYLE with the Monotype is a high
achievement.

authority has well said that typography is the


servant of the advertising idea; to which he might
have added that no printing can be any better than the
legibility of the type employed in its composition.
The invention of printing essentially antedates the art of

them by modern methods, eliminating the


mechanical crudities of the original hand-cutter and caster,
perfecting, not distorting nor "improving," the original characteristics which have kept this famous type alive for two

making type, but without movable types the art of printing


would be hardly any further advanced than it was in the

In 1858 a Philadelphia type-founder made matrices from


the imported Caslon type; cast type from these matrices,
retaining practically every good feature of the original

days of Gutenberg.
It is indeed doubtful if the mechanics of the craft could
have reached anything like present-day perfection without
the work of the punch-cutter and the type designer. The
art of printing owes nearly everything that it has earned
for itself to the art of making movable types. And modern
printing owes its mechanical advancement to the rapid
production of movable types in generous quantities.
Critics hold that printing was at its best in the middle
period of its history. The printers of that period were their
own type-founders, and the printers of today also may be
their own type-founders, through the great work of the
Lanston Monotype Machine Company, who have placed in
the modern printing establishment complete type-founding
and composing facilities, occupying less than one hundred
square feet of floor space, that automatically produce movable type (ready composed if desired) at a speed many
times faster and infinitely easier than that known to
Schoeffer, Aldus, Van Dyk, Caslon and contemporaneous

type designers.
Very little of the work of the early type-makers has survived in such form as to be of practical value to printers of
today. The old master-craftsmen are known only by press
impressions of their type product in rare old books and
prints, preserved as gems of printing in a few libraries and

museums.

From these old books of the middle ages modern typefounders have fashioned type faces with modifications, and
have given these faces the names of the designers and
printers known to have cut the original punches, but these
imitation type faces have not enjoyed a wide use in modern
printing practice, perhaps because they are at best little
more than modern interpretations of press impressions of
the original type that came from the hand of its medieval
creator.

The work of William Caslon the First, however, exists


today in the form of the original punches, cut by his hands
in 1720, and as far as the writer has been able to learn the
Caslon product is the only surviving masterpiece of the
heyday of classic printing. It lives because it deserves to
live.

Caslon; but subsequent attempts to "improve" the type by


various other founders have robbed the original of all of its
charm and grace, and much of the legibility which made
the genuine famous.
Therefore the so-called Caslon type used by printers
today is in reality not Caslon at all except in name.
Printers have been offered for the past twenty years or
more all sorts of versions and hideous distortions of the
original Caslon by type-founders and slug-machine manufacturers.

CAUTION ON SWASH CHARACTERS: To cast the swash characters with the authentic close fitting, as originally designed by
William Caslon the First, requires that the Molds and Type-pusher Guide be altered to clear the extra long swash kern. The
Molds can be altered only in our factory and a nominal charge is made for this. The Type-pusher Guide can be altered by the
customer from directions which we will furnish, or, if preferred, a new one may be purchased. Molds made since February i,
1920, and Type-pusher Guides on machines number 6263 and following have these alterations. For machines of lower serial
number than 1203, additional alterations may be necessary, details of which will be furnished when required.

old style lining figures if desired, giving their
proper symbol; otherwise we always furnish
standard old style figures if made.

Matrix

Box

for Display Matrices

This Improved Matrix Box is offered


to meet the demand of operators
for a box that will enable them to
quickly locate any desired matrix
when sorting up the cases. It keeps
each matrix separate and easily accessible, and will prove a time saver
in the caster room.
The new box is about & 1A inches long
by 2% inches wide and 15 inches
high over all. It is divided into 83 individual compartments for holding
one matrix each and a compartment
for the line standard. These compartments are in two rows and the
wide central division between carries a

printed label which indicates

opposite each compartment the

character to be kept in it. The partitions are of wood and the inside of
the cover is plush-lined so that injury to the matrices is practically
impossible. The box is covered with
imitation leather and the cover is
held shut with two snap fasteners.
It

is

neat, strong,

and well made

throughout.

The saving

of

time in handling of

matrices will soon pay for the replacing of the old style box by these
new and very much more convenient
ones, and every Monotype user
should investigate it at once. The
price has been placed so low that the
saving of one using will almost cover
it, while the convenience is priceless.

THE MATRIX CASE


THE HEART OF THE MONOTYPE

This little magazine carries the matrices which


control the kind of type
that is cast. It may contain a combination of
the faces required for
a particular job or an
ordinary font; but in
every Monotype plant
there should be a matrix case for each font.

The

price of these

ma-

trix cases is so slight

that the cost of taking


a font of matrices out of
the case and replacing

with another will soon


pay the bill for matrix
cases to hold every font
in the office, especially
when these cases are
ordered with the fonts.

sound apprenticeship; that which shall prove to be the
blending of a firm conception of all useful precedent and
the progressive tendencies of an able mind. For, let a man
be as able and original as he may, he cannot afford to discard knowledge of what has gone before or what Is now
going on In his own trade and profession. If the printers of
today do not wish to be esteemed arrogant when they term
this calling of theirs an art, they must be willing, and show
that they are willing, to subject It to such laws as have
made Its sister arts so free. All those concerned In what
are accepted as the fine arts, the learned sciences, and professions surround themselves with the history, literature,
and concrete examples of the work with which they are
particularly engaged. Yet It Is only In rare Instances that
such an atmosphere, with its material appurtenances, Is to
be found In a printing office. Art does not flourish in hidden places, nor under restraint, nor In Ignorance of what
talent and genius have accomplished and are accomplishing
throughout the world. For to follow precedent wisely does
not mean to imitate slavishly one great exemplar, but to
study all masters faithfully, letting their great achievements sink slowly into the mind In order that we may
patiently derive from the richness of our acquired knowledge and organized system an attitude of our own. The
sprightly minded young man who with his first business
breath projects the new and startling, Inevitably becomes
tiresome, and Is driven to an early disappearance; while
the slower, more solidly endowed student will at least spend
as much of his time In avoiding mistakes as In evolving
brilliant schemes wherewith to dazzle his contemporaries.

PLATE-GOTHIC COMBINATIONS SHOWN IN


THESE PAGES ARE THOSE WHICH HAVE BEEN

COMPLETED. THEY ARE SUFFICIENT IN NUMBER


AND VARIETY TO SET PRACTICALLY ALL THE SMALL
JOB WORK IN THE AVERAGE PRINTING OFFICE TO

THE SATISFACTION OF EVEN THE MOST CRITICAL


PRINTER OR BUYER OF PRINTING, THOUGH THEY DO
NOT EXHAUST THE POSSIBILITIES OF THIS LATEST
DEVELOPMENT OF MONOTYPE LABOR-SAVING AND
QUALITY-ENSURING INVENTIONS.

AS A SUGGESTION OF WHAT HAS BEEN ACCOMPLISHED IN THE PLATE-GOTHIC COMBINATIONS, WE


CALL YOUR ATTENTION TO THE FACT THAT THE BEST
POSSIBLE OF THE OLDER ARRANGEMENTS PROVIDED FOR ONLY THREE ALPHABETS OF CAPITALS

all four sizes of six-point are carried in one Matrix Case and, similarly, all four sizes of twelve-point
Thus, four sizes may be composed at one operation on the Style D Keyboard, or eight sizes on the Duplex
Keyboard, and cast in justified lines on the Casting Machine. At the Keyboard the right and left Keybars and Keybanks P-G and the Stopand
of
bars S108 are required, and at the Casting Machine the Normal Wedge S108 is required. A five-unit high space is required before the
both six- and twelve-point No. 1 size of the 343J series.
Both six-point and twelve-point fonts will line when cast in composition on the same Mold, but to justify the six-point with the twelve-point,
when setting by hand, the following plan has been adopted: The twelve-point remains on its standard line, .1250, but the six-point is cast to .0697
line.
The six-point is then justified to the twelve-point by placing four points above and two points below the six-point type. Electro- Display
Matrices of the No. 169 series, shown on page four, are the same type design and are an extension of this 343J series and justify with twelve-point by
point justification. To justify together the twelve-, fourteen-, eighteen-, and twenty-four-point sizes, place all the spacing at the top. This makes

The comma, semi-colon, and tail of the Cap Q of the eighteen- and twenty-four-point sizes will overhang the body slightly, and there
be a slight overhang at the top of the 18H4 and 24H4 sizes.
This plan for point line justifying all sizes of the Plate-Gothic for hand composition applies to all series of Plate-Gothics now ready and those that
may be added in the future. The line standards for casting type for hand composition for Plate-Gothics according to the above plan will be as follows:

Stopbars S108 are required, and at the Casting Machine the Normal Wedge S108 is required. A five-unit high space is required before the
of the six-point No. 1 size of the 344J series.
When setting by hand, the following plan has been adopted. The six-point is cast to .0697 line. The sizes above six-point are Electro-Display
Matrices designated as the No. 166 series and are a continuation of the 344J series, shown on reverse of this sheet. The twelve-point is cast on its
standard line .1250; to justify the six- with the twelve-point place four points above and two points below the six-point type. The eight- and the
ten-point will be cast on twelve-point body with the standard twelve-point line.
To justify together the twelve-, fourteen-, and eighteen-point sizes, place all the spacing at the top. This makes all sizes line. The comma, semicolon, and tail of the Cap Q of the eighteen-point size will overhang the body slightly, and there will be a slight overhang at the top of the 18H4 Size.
The line standards for casting type for hand composition for Plate-Gothics according to the above plan will be as follows: Six-point .0697; eightand ten-point on twelve-point body .1250; twelve-point .1250 (Standard); fourteen-point .1527; eighteen-point .2080.

'"THE 34 7J Series is

so arranged that all four sizes of six-point are carried in one Matrix Case. Thus, four sizes may be composed at one operation
on the Keyboard, and cast in justified lines on the Casting Machine. At the Keyboard the right and left Keybars and Keybanks P-G and the
and
S108
are required, and at the Casting Machine the Normal Wedge S108 is required. A five-unit high space is required before the
Stopbars
of the six-point No. 1 size of the 34 7 J Series.
When setting by hand, the following plan has been adopted. The six-point is cast to .0697 line. The sizes above six-point are Electro-Display
Matrices designated as the No. 223 Series and are a continuation of the 347J Series, shown on reverse of this sheet. The twelve-point is cast on
its standard line
.1250; to justify the six- with the twelve-point place four points above and two points below the six-point type. The eight- and
the ten-point will be cast on twelve-point body with the standard twelve-point line.
To justify together the twelve-, eighteen-, and twenty-four-point sizes, place all the spacing at the top. This makes all sizes line. The comma,
semicolon, and tail of the Cap Q of the eighteen- and twenty-four-point size will overhang the body slightly.
The line standards for casting type for hand composition for Plate-Gothics according to the above plan will be as follows: Six-point .0697; eightand ten-point on twelve-point body .1250: twelve-point .1250 (Standard); eighteen-point .2080; twenty-four-point .2910.
The Draw Rod should be readjusted to suit the movement of the Centering Pin when running on special line adjustment in order to produce the

The line standards for casting type for hand composition for Plate-Gothics according to the above plan will be as follows: Six-point .0697; ninepoint on twelve-point body .1250; fourteen point .1527; eighteen -point .2080; twenty-four-point .2910.
The Draw Rod should be readjusted to suit the movement of the Centering Pin when running on special line adjustment in order to produce the

point line justification.

not flourish in hidden places, nor under restraint, nor in ignorance of what talent and genius have accomplished and are now

wisely does not mean to imitate slavishly one great exemplar,
but to study all the masters faithfully, letting their great
achievements sink slowly into the mind in order that we may
patiently derive from the richness of our acquired knowledge
and organized system an attitude of our own. The sprightly
minded young man, who with his first business breath projects
the new and startling, inevitably becomes tiresome, and he
is driven to an early disappearance; while the slower and
more
solidly endowed student will at least spend as much of his time
in avoiding mistakes as in evolving the brilliant schemes wherewith to dazzle his contemporaries. The best kind of originality

together with the additional characters necessary to complete the German font. In ordering, specify the proper point

You will receive characters which are marked 95J, so far as they conform
exactly to the No. 95J series, and other characters symboled H9-95J, which represent the extra characters to complete
the German. As this face is on a special arrangement, it requires a special right keybar.

This series, designated as No. 102M, is made up of our No. 102J series, shown under the classification of Text letters,
together with the additional characters necessary to complete the German font. In ordering, specify the proper point
size and the series number as above, No. 102M.
You will receive characters which are marked 102J, so far as they conform
exactly to the 102J series, and other characters symboled H9-102J, which represent the extra characters to complete the
German. As this face is on a special arrangement, it requires a special right keybar.

This series, designated No. 318J, is made up of our No. 1 18J


series, together with the additional characters necessary to
miplete the Ruthenian font. In ordering, specify the proper point size and the series number as above, No.
318J. You will
:eive characters which are marked 1 1 8J, so far as
they conform exactly to the No. 1 1 8J series, and other characters symboled
8J which represent the extra characters to complete the Ruthenian. The Ruthenian
arrangement differs from the Russian
arrangement in only six characters. In order to set Russian, the necessary characters would be added to a Ruthenian font.
This is a special arrangement and requires a
special right keybar when used in combination with the No. 308A Roman!

Set Factor

is the set multiplied by unit width; thus, the set factor of a character made for the 10 unit row of 8 set is 80 (10X8
80).
Knowing the
factor and the set to be used, to determine the proper unit row for any character divide the set factor by the set to be used. RULE:
Given the
factor of a matrix, to determine for any set, the unit row of the matrix case in uhich to carry this matrix: divide the set factor by the set to be used, the
result it the unit row required.
If this result contains a fraction use next larger unit row. EXAMPLE: Set factor 80. Find unit row in which to carry

Factor is the set multiplied by unit width; thus, the set factor of a character made for the 10 unit row of 8 set is 80 (10X8 = 80). Know ing the
et factor and the set to be used, to determine the proper unit row for any character divide the set factor by the set to be used.
RULE: Given the
set factor of a matrix, to determine for any set, the unit row of the matrix case in which to carry this matrix: divide the set factor by the set to be used, the
result is the unit row required.
If this result contains a fraction use next larger unit row. EXAMPLE: Set factor 80. Find unit row in which to carry
this matrix in matrix case used with 9 set normal wedge; 80-5-9
8.8, therefore put matrix in 9 unit row.
Type Line: All matrices for composition when used in the same matrix case produce type on the same line regardless of any difference in point
size of the matrices, and the line standard to use with a matrix case depends upon the point size of the mold used with the matrices.
The type line
is the mold size expressed decimally with five added to the right hand figure, thus, the line for a 5K point mold is .060" (.055 " + .00.5*= .060"), the
type line for 5tf point faces. EXCEPTIONS: Abnormally tall characters are of necessity, driven to a lower matrix line and consequently when used
in combination with standard line matrices the line of the type cast from special line matrices is lower than the type cast from standard line matrices.
For all such exceptions the type line is given; for example 5% point F10 figures for which the type line is given as .071" (the distance from the top
of the body to the bottom of these figures when cast on 5 % point body) thus these matrices produce type .01 1" lower than that produced by standard
line matrices used with them (.071*
.060"= .01 1").
Prices: The figure matrices shown on this page are all Class A matrices, except those which have the classification noted in parentheses after the

Set Factor is the set multiplied by unit width; thus, the set factor of a character made for the 10 unit row of 8 set is 80 (10X8 80). Knowing the
et factor and the set to be used, to determine the proper unit row for any character divide the set factor by the set to be used.
RULE: Given the
factor of a matrix, to determine for any set, the unit row of the matrix case in which to carry this matrix: divide the set factor by the set to be used, the
result is the unit row required.

Type Line: All matrices for composition when used in the same matrix case produce type on the same line regardless of any difference in point
size of the matrices, and the line standard to use with a matrix case depends upon the point size of the mold used with the matrices.
The type line
the mold size expressed decimally with five added to the right hand figure, thus, the line for a Stf point mold is .060" (.055 "
.005"= .060"), the
type line for 5 >f point faces. EXCEPTIONS: Abnormally tall characters are of necessity, driven to a lower matrix line and consequently when used
in combination with standard line matrices the line of the type cast from special line matrices is lower than the type cast from standard line matrices.
For all such exceptions the type line is given; for example 5
point F10 figures for which the type line is given as .071* (the distance from the top
of the body to the bottom of these figures when cast on 5 t point body) thus these matrices produce type .01 1 * lower than that produced by standard
line matrices used with them (.071"
.060"
.01 1 ") .

is the set multiplied by unit width; thus, the set factor of a character made for the 10 unit row of 8 set is 80 (10X8 = 80).
Knowing the
and the set to be used, to determine the proper unit row for any character divide the set factor by the set to be used. RULE: Given the
fmlnr of a matrix, to determine for any set, the unit row of the matrix case in which to carry this matrix: divide the set factor by the set to be used, the
result is the unit row required.
If this result contains a fraction use next larger unit raw. EXAMPLE: Set factor 80. Find unit row in which to carry
this matrix in matrix case used with 9 set normal wedge; 80-5-9 = 8.8, therefore put matrix in 9 unit row.
Type Line: All matrices for composition when used in the same matrix case produce type on the same line regardless of any difference in point
size of the matrices, and the line standard to use with a matrix case depends upon the point size of the mold used with the matrices.
The type line
is the mold size expressed decimally with five added to the right hand figure, thus, the line for a 5> point mold is .060" (.055" + .005"= .060"), the
type line for Stf point faces. EXCEPTIONS: Abnormally tall characters are of necessity, driven to a lower matrix line and consequently when used
in combination with standard line matrices the line of the type cast from spedal line matrices is lower than the type cast from standard line matrices.
For all such exceptions the type line is given; for example 5 > point F10 figures for which the type line is given as .071" (the distance from the top
of the body to the bottom of these figures when cast on 5
point body) thus these matrices produce type .011" lower than that produced by standard
line matrices used with them (.071"
.060" = .01 1 ")

Set Factor is the set multiplied by unit width; thus, the set factor of a character made for the 10 unit row of 8 set is 80 (10X8 = 80). Knowing the
et factor and the set to be used, to determine the proper unit row for any character divide the set factor by the set to be used.
RULE: Given the
factor of a matrix, to determine for any set, the unit row of the matrix case in which to carry this matrix: divide the set factor by the set to be used, the
result >s the unit row required.
EXAMPLE: Set factor 80. Find unit row in which to carry
If this result contains a fraction use next larger unit row.
this matrix in matrix case used with 9 set normal wedge; 80-3-9 = 8.8, therefore put matrix in 9 unit row.
let

All matrices for composition when used in the same matrix case produce type on the same line regardless of any difference in point
the matrices, and the line standard to use with a matrix case depends upon the point size of the mold used with the matrices. The type line
the mold size expressed decimally with five added to the right hand figure, thus, the line for a
.0()5" = .060"), the
point mold is .060" (.055"
type line for 5>4 point faces. EXCEPTIONS: Abnormally tall characters are of necessity, driven to a lower matrix line and consequently when used
in combination with standard line matrices the line of the type cast from special line matrices is lower than the type cast from standard line matrices.
For all such exceptions the type line is given; for example 5
point F10 figures for which the type line is given as .071" (the distance from the top
of the body to the bottom of these figures when cast on 5 t point body) thus these matrices produce type .011" lower than that produced by standard
line matrices used with them (.071*
.060*= .01 1").

Set Factor is the set multiplied by unit width thus, the set factor of a character made for the 10 unit row of 8 set is 80 (10X8 = 80). Knowing the
set factor and the set to be used, to determine the proper unit row for any character divide the set factor by the set to be used.
RULE: Given the
set factor of a matrix, to determine for any set, the unit row of the matrix case in which to carry this matrix: divide the set factor by the set to be used, the
result is the unit rcnv required.
If this result contains a fraction use. next larger unit row. EXAMPLE: Set factor 80. Find unit row in which to carry
this matrix in matrix case used with 9 set normal wedge; 80 -=-9 = 8.8, therefore put matrix in 9 unit row.
;

Type Line: All matrices for composition when used in the same matrix case produce type on the same line regardless of any difference in point
size of the matrices, and the line standard to use with a matrix case depends upon the point size of the mold used with the matrices.
The type line
is the mold size expressed decimally with five added to the right hand figure, thus, the line fora SyZ point mold is .060" (.055"
005" .060"), the
type line for Stf point faces. EXCEPTIONS: Abnormally tall characters are of necessity, driven to a lower matrix line and consequently when used
in combination with standard line matrices the line of the type cast from special line matrices is lower than the type cast from standard line matrices.
For all such exceptions the type line is given; for example 5 Yi point F10 figures for which the type line is given as .071" (the distance from the top
of the body to the bottom of these figures when cast on 5 YI point body) thus these matrices produce type .01 1 " lower than that produced by standard
line matrices used with them (.071"
.060" =.011").

Set Factor is the set multiplied by unit width; thus, the set factor of a character made for the 10 unit row of 8 set is 80 (10X8 = 80). Knowing the
set factor and the set to be used, to determine the proper unit row for any character divide the set factor by the set to be used.
RULE: Given the
set factor of a matrix, to determine for any set, the unit row of the matrix case in which to carry this matrix: divide the set factor by the set to be used, the
result is the unit row required.
If this result contains a fraction use next larger unit row. EXAMPLE: Set factor 80. Find unit row in which to carry
this matrix in matrix case used with 9 set normal wedge; 80-5-9 = 8.8, therefore put matrix in 9 unit row.

Type Line: All matrices for composition when used in the same matrix case produce type on the same line regardless of any difference in point
size of the matrices, and the line standard to use with a matrix case depends upon the point size of the mold used with the matrices.
The type line
the mold size expressed decimally with five added to the right hand figure, thus, the line for a 5'/, point mold is .060" (.055"+. 005* = .060"), the
type line for
EXCEPTIONS: Abnormally tall characters are of necessity, driven to a lower matrix line and consequently when used
point faces.
in combination with standard line matrices the line of the type cast from special line matrices is lower than the type cast from standard line matrices.
For all such exceptions the type line is given; for example 5'^ point F10 figures for which the type line is given as .071" (the distance from the top
of the body to the bottom of these figures when cast on S}4 point body) thus these matrices produce type .011" lower than that produced by standard
line matrices used with them (.071"
.060" = .011").

Set Factor is the set multiplied by unit width; thus, the set factor of a character made for the 10 unit row of 8 set is 80 (10X8 = 80). Knowing the
and the set to be used, to determine the proper unit row for any character divide the set factor by the set to be used. RULE: Given the
of a matrix, to determine for uny set, the unit row of the matrix case in which to carry this matrix: divide the set factor by the set to be used, the
result in the unit row required.
If this result contains a fraction use next larger unit row. EXAMPLE: Set factor 80. Find unit row in which to carry
this matrix in matrix case used with 9 set normal wedge; 80-^9 = 8.8, therefore put matrix in 9 unit row.
Type Line: All matrices for composition when used in the same matrix case produce type on the same line regardless of any difference in point
size of the matrices, and the line standard to use with a matrix case depends upon the point size of the mold used with the matrices.
The type line
is the mold size expressed decimally with five added to the right hand figure, thus, the line for a 5 A point mold is .060" (.055* + .005"= .060"), the
type line for 5y2 point faces. EXCEPTIONS: Abnormally tall characters are of necessity, driven to a lower matrix line and consequently when used
in combination with standard line matrices the line of the type cast from special line matrices is lower than the typecast from standard line matrices.
For all such exceptions the type line is given; for example 5 y* point F10 figures for which the type line is given as .071" (the distance from the top
of the body to the bottom of these figures when cast on 5 % point body) thus these matrices produce type .01 1 " lower than that produced by standard
line matrices used with them (.071"
.060"- .01 1").
Prices: The figure matrices shown on this page are all Class A matrices, except those which have the classification noted in parentheses after the
series number.

Set Factor is the set multiplied by unit width; thus, the set factor of a character made for the 10 unit row of 8 set is 80 (10X8 = 80). Knowing the
and the set to be used, to determine the proper unit row for any character divide the set factor by the set to be used. RULE: Given the
factor of a matrix, to determine for any set, the unit row of the matrix case in which to carry this matrix: divide the set factor by the set to be used, the
result is the unit roiv required.
If this result contains a fraction use next larger unit rcnv.
EXAMPLE: Set factor 80. Find unit row in which to carry
this matrix in matrix case used with 9 set normal wedge; 80^9 = 8.8, therefore put matrix in 9 unit row.
Type Line: All matrices for composition when used in the same matrix case produce type on the same line regardless of any difference in point
ze of the matrices, and the line standard to use with a matrix case depends upon the point size of the mold used with the matrices.
The type line
is the mold size expressed decimally with five added to the right hand figure, thus, the line for a 5% point mold is .060* (.055 " + .005" =
.060"). the

is the set multiplied by unit width; thus, the set factor of a character made for the 10 unit row of 8 set is 80 (10X8 = 80).
Knowing the
set to be used, to determine the proper unit row for any character divide the set factor by the set to be used.
RULE: Given the
a matrix, to determine for any set, the unit row of the matrix case in which to carry this matrix: divide the set factor by the set to be used, the
unit row required. If this result contains a fraction use next larger unit row. EXAMPLE: Set factor 80. Find unit row in which to carry
this matrix in matrix case used with 9 set normal wedge; 80-r-9 = 8.8, therefore put matrix in 9 unit row.
Line:
All matrices for composition when used in the same matrix case produce type on the same line regardless of any difference in point
Type
size of the matrices, and the line standard to use with a matrix case depends upon the point size of the mold used with the matrices.
The type line
is the mold size expressed decimally with five added to the right hand figure, thus, the line for a 5K point mold is .060" (.055"
.005"= .060"), the
type line for 5 Yi point faces. EXCEPTIONS: Abnormally tall characters are of necessity, driven to a lower matrix line and consequently when used
in combination with standard line matrices the line of the type cast from special line matrices is lower than the type cast from standard line matrices.
For all such exceptions the type line is given; for example 5 ]/i point F10 figures for which the type line is given as .071" (the distance from the top
of the body to the bottom of these figures when cast on 5yZ point body) thus these matrices produce type .011" lower than that produced by standard
line matrices used with them (.071"
.060* = .011").

the set multiplied by unit width; thus, the set factor of a character made for the 10 unit row of 8 set is 80 (10X8-80). Knowing the
set factor and the set to be used, to determine the proper unit row for any character divide the set factor by the set to be used.
RULE: Given the

INFORMATION FOR ORDERING MATRICES


Ten Point, Ten and One-half Set character, and 7Xc
means Seven Point, Seven and Three-quarter Set.
The unit values are designated by a lower case letter

For convenience in ordering, and for reference purposes, all signs have been classified and each individual
character in the different groups numbered. In ordering, select the character of the point size and unit value

on the Series Side of the Matrix;

required, giving the number of the sign, point size, set


size, group and unit value, thus: In ordering characters
shown on these sheets, so that there can be no possible
chance of confusing figures, separate the number of the
character from the symbol with the word "sign," thus:
Number 2 Sign 8W-10P, or Number 7 Sign 10H7U-40Pf.
Set size is indicated by letters following the number
on the Point Size of the Matrix that designates the point
size of the character; caps are used for whole sets and
lower case for fractions of a set, thus:

Set Factor is the set multiplied by unit width; thus, the set factor for a character made for the 10 unit row of 8 set is 80 (10X8 = 80). Knowing
the set factor and the set to be used, to determine the proper unit row for any character divide the set factor by the set to be used. RULE: Given the
set factor of a matrix, to determine for any set, the unit row of the matrix case in which to carry this matrix: divide the set factor by the set to be used, the
result is the unit row required.
If this result contains a fraction use next larger unit row. EXAMPLE: Set factor 80. Find unit row in which to carry
this matrix in matrix case used with 9 set normal wedge; 80-7-9 = 8.8; therefore put matrix in 9 unit row.

national advertising agencies and in large measure for automobile and other high-grade
catalogs, as well as all kinds of books and booklets. The printer with this special equipment

Monotype Scotch
With <ong descenders

and Swash

(Characters

Herewith is presented a showing of the New Monotype Scotch Roman


(No. 36A), with Long Descenders and Swash Characters.
In the 10, 11 and 12 point composition sizes (Nos. 36A and 36C) sixteen characters of each size have been redesigned with Long Descenders.
In each of the 9, 10, 11 and 12 point composition sizes (36C) and in
the 14, 18, 24, 30 and 36 point sizes (361), twelve Swash Characters have
been designed, as shown on the opposite page.
The 10 point Scotch Roman with long descenders is run on the standard 11 point mold, and the 11 point face on the standard 12 point mold.

tf

12 point size requires a 14 point EA composition mold, $185.00, and


a set of special Keybars, Left No. 1295 and Right No. 1296, price $32.50

The

These special EA composition mold and special Keybars are the


same that are required for the composition of 12 point 337E and 12 point
31E with long descenders.
each.

Composition fonts with long descenders, complete with italic, in


matrix case, including 12 point, at standard prices, $115.00 each.
Monotype plants which have the regular Scotch (36A and 36C) already
on hand for composition may change to the Long-Descender equipment
in the 10 point or 11 point sizes simply by ordering the sixteen
special
characters at Class A prices (60 cents each). In the 12 point size it is
necessary to purchase sixteen special characters at Class B prices ($1.00
each), ten matrix case combs No. a8A7 at $2.00 each, and five matrix
bars b8A4 at 7 cents each.

For casting Swash Characters in display sizes 14, 18, 24, 30 and 36 point,
necessary to have the mold and type pusher guide altered. The mold must
be sent to the factory, and the charge is $3.00. The type pusher guide may be
altered in the customer's plant. Molds and type pusher guides that already
have been altered for our New Old Caslon (3371) Swash Characters may be

used also for Scotch (361) Swash Characters without further alterations.)

-ON THE FLEXIBILITY OF THE MONOTYPE*


Extract from a Letter of Bruce Rogers to a Friend
{Printed by permission}

You seem

to be surprised that

on the Monotype, forgetting, perhaps, that I used it


as long ago as 1909 on the "Lite of Tory," and a few other
Riverside Press editions, and implying that they cannot possibly be as well done in that way as by hand. Perhaps in the
early days of the Monotype that was so; on the mechanical
side, at least, it is no longer true, and I believe the sentiment at
the Monotype works has changed so radically of recent years
that they are now quite as keen on the esthetic improvement of
their product as they have always been on its mechanical side.
Of As much still depends upon the operator using the machine

casting it on the wide or standard body for the
wide page and on a narrow body for the narrow one. The alteration quite changes the appearance of the type itself, giving
it in one case the look of a bold, round face, and in the other
almost a condensed effect. I have two or three times found this
flexibility of great assistance in making fac-simile reprints of
old books; with a few trials the set can be gauged so as to make
line-for-line reproduction in a given measure a matter of comparative ease, without resorting to excessive variations in the
spacing, flflt won't do, however, to change the set arbitrarily
or on all the varieties of type. I am -speaking in general of the

mind, as that is the type you referred to specifically.


The Scotch Roman had better be used on its standard set, as
modern faces generally carry too much color to set very closely.
They need more space between letters, more space between
words, and a corresponding increase in leading over old-style
types. I know almost nothing more disagreeable than the custom of setting Scotch Roman as a solid page. Double leading
is not too much for it,
especially since the longer descenders
have been added to the fount. Of The great lack now in both the
Scotch and the Caslon is a satisfactory i6-point face, to be cast
on a i6-point or i8-point body; but I suppose we shall have to
wait for it until the machines are adapted to composition of
larger sizes than is possible at present. QThe i8-point Caslon
in both hand and machine
types is almost impossible to read
when assembled in a page, owing to its excessive width of set.
The Caslon of this size made in England was not followed as
to set when the first American fount was cast, and the Monotype Company, for some unknown reason, chose to follow the
American rather than the proper English model. Fortunately
larly in

the flexibility in casting conies into play here too, and this size
can be cast on the English set or even closer if desired. In this

has a decided advantage over the hand type. Of I can't


help thinking, too, that the 12-point on 14 Monotype Caslon
with the long descenders makes a more satisfactory page than
the regulation 14-point Caslon. It is an enlargement of the same
design from which the other sizes were cut, and different, there-

respect

fore,

it

from any hand type of similar

size that

am

acquainted
with. If they ever make a i6-point it might well be a still furor else a slight reduction of
ther enlargement of this design
the i8-point face. Of As you know, however, I am not a great
enthusiast over Caslon. It is at most a safe type for general use
and moderately picturesque; but there are so many other old
models that are nobler in proportion and finer in drawing that
it seems a pity one or more of them are not reproduced with
the same fidelity that has been devoted to the Caslon and the
Scotch.

A process that gives you sharp, crisp type for every new

book should be taken advantage of in reproducing a type with


more of those qualities than the design of the Caslon possesses.

One

great beauty of Jenson's first type, and Robert Estienne's


and Michael Vascosan's, is their crispness, which is lost just as
soon as they begin to show signs of wear. The "design," the

"drawing," in fact disappears after a few printings, though the


fine proportions remain. This is true of more examples of early
printing than most people seem aware of; at least the critics
seldom take it into account, or the type-cutters, when they remodel an old face. Of But I'm off my subject. At any rate I've
said enough to enable you to see that I consider Monotype

composition quite as

MR. GOUDY'S INTERPRETATION OF

GARAMONT
This exquisite Garamont face was suggested by the Company's Art Director, MR. FREDERIC W. GOUDY. MR. GOUDY
based his model on a type attributed to Garamont. He has
faithfully interpreted all the characteristics of the original
Garamont design, among which are the relatively large
roman capitals, the small upper loop of the roman lowercase
"e" and the narrow contracted appearance of the roman
lowercase "a" the peculiarities of alignment, the extreme
length of the roman capital ceriphs, the long descenders, the
close fitting, and the various slopes of the italic letters. The
roman fonts are wonderfully legible and open, and the italics
have a freedom of movement that delight the eye.
GEOFROY TORY of Bourges was the remarkable genius whose
work definitely established the excellence of French Typography and brought it to the fore-front early in the fifteenth
century. CLAUDE GARAMONT was a pupil and apprentice of
TORY and under his influence and teaching very quickly
established an enviable reputation for himself.
Like TORY he perfected the letter we know as Old Style
Roman and Italic. These types very rapidly replaced the
Gothic fonts that had been extensively used up to that time.
Some authorities state that he based his roman letter on a
model of NICOLAS JENSON. As JENSON'S roman types were
famous just prior to Garamont it would seem natural that he
should choose them as his source of inspiration, but there is a
certain lightness, beauty, and elegance of design about Garamont's types that is lacking in the rather simple letter of
JENSON. His Italic undoubtedly was based on that of ALDUS
MANUTIUS who produced it in the year isoi.

Garamont 's fame

as a designer and letter punch-cutter


and
he
received numerous requests for cutting
rapidly spread
new fonts. In order to extend his service he established a type
foundry in Paris for making and casting his types. This foundry
was the first in the world that was not an annex of a printing
house. His types were used extensively throughout Italy,
England, Holland, and Germany.
