| Meer info | the Annual Press Accounts show clearly the kind of expenditure which a large printing-house incurred; and many of the Vouchers reveal the week-by-week operations of the Press in great detail. The testimony of all these documents to printing and book-trade practice is an important contribution to the meagre fund of primary evidence at present available on these subjects. They allow new insights into such topics as printing-house design, staff ratios and turnover, deployment of staff, the purchase of types and equipment, the maintenance of equipment, compositors'and pressmen's output, the wages they received, press-figures, shared work, book prices, edition sizes, and so on. All books and other items printed by the Press (and the period includes Bentley's ' Horace ' and the second edition of Newton's ' Principia ') are listed in a detailed bibliography, which gives precise information on each book's production, identifying sheet by sheet the compositors, correctors, and pressmen who worked on it. There is also an inventory of all the types used at the Press, with notes on their design, origin, cost and quantity. All the documents on which the narrative in the first volume is based are reproduced in the second volume""." |
