To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But, though in 1877 there were signs of a typographical awakening, and influences were being generated which in course of time produced good results, the absolute fairness of the following estimation of British job work by a distinguished American printer, written shortly after his return from a visit to Europe in 1878, cannot be gainsaid : The general peculiarity of English job printing is its abruptness and same- ness of appearance with nothing to charm the eye or enrapture the sense. Notwith...standing this, there is a character, and that is its painful plainness, lacking nearly all the requisites pertaining to Art. Thus, at the end of 1878 there was still not much of the artistic element in British job printing. At the same time, while admitting that "painful plainness " was the leading characteristic of the productions of home printers prior to the elevating influence of American and German typography and the introduction of more artistic facilities, there is no lack of evidence that really good printing, praiseworthy alike in compo- sition and presswork, was by no means rare in this country.
