ACKNOWLEDGMENT
This series of Typographic Text-books is the result of the splendid
co-operation of a large number of firms and individuals engaged in
the printing business and its allied industries in the United States
of America.
The Committee on Education of the United Typothetae of America,
under whose auspices the books have been prepared and published,
acknowledges its indebtedness for the generous assistance rendered
by the many authors, printers, and others identified with this work.
While due acknowledgment is made on the title and copyright pages of
those contributing to each book, the Committee nevertheless felt
that a group list of co-operating firms would be of interest.
The following list is not complete, as it includes only those who
have co-operated in the production of a portion of the volumes,
constituting the first printing. As soon as the entire list of books
comprising the Typographic Technical Series has been completed
(which the Committee hopes will be at an early date), the full list
will be printed in each volume.
The Committee also desires to acknowledge its indebtedness to the
many subscribers to this Series who have patiently awaited its
publication.
