Description

Hoe's book is an illustrated review of advances in printing technology from the time of Gutenberg to the end of the nineteenth century; because so many advances in printing presses and printing machines had occurred during the nineteenth century, from the invention of the Stanhope iron handpress onward, Hoe focused primarily on that period. The bronze medal exhibited here is reproduced on the title page.
