EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable evolution of printing machines during the 19th century. It takes us on a journey through time, revealing the ingenuity and technical advancements that revolutionized the world of printing. At the forefront is the iron Albion hand press (1), diligently producing individual prints with precision and care. Moving forward, we encounter the Liberty platen jobbing-press (2), which brought efficiency and speed to small-scale print jobs. As we delve deeper into this visual narrative, we witness the emergence of more sophisticated machinery. The single-cylinder jobbing machine (3) demonstrates enhanced capabilities, while its successor, the single cylinder jobbing and book machine (4), expands possibilities by accommodating both tasks seamlessly. The Kirkaldy double cylinder or perfecting book machine (5) truly stands out as it pioneers double-sided printing before a sheet even leaves its mechanism. Following closely is an innovative French double cylinder book machine with set-off sheet apparatus (6), showcasing yet another stride in technological advancement. Finally, our eyes rest upon a marvel of engineering –the Victory web newspaper machine with folding apparatus (7). This rotary press harnesses continuous rolls of paper to churn out an astonishing 10,000 copies per hour; an extraordinary feat for its time. Through this image from Science Photo Library, we are transported back to witness how these mechanical wonders shaped history by democratizing information dissemination.
