[GreenKeys] A -- Teletypesetter???

Sun Aug 29 04:34:57 EDT 2021

Now that brings back some memories from my school days....

Back in 1974 we had an excursion to a regional newspaper where we got the grand tour of how to make a newspaper.
We got to see almost every step of it, starting with the editorial office and ending at the printing press where the cardboard
positive was cast into the printing press half-cylinder.

Some of the Linotypes had a paper-tape reader and did the lead strip casting almost unattended.

I still have a lead cast of my first and last name of it as a souvenir somewhere in the attic.

Years ago I helped rescue a Linotype from the scrap heap. As a thank you, once they got it working they made three “lines of type” of my choosing and printed about 30 business sized cards with my choice of text:
