1915 Linotype advertisement

THIS c1915 advertising postcard compares the Linotype Model 9 to the Blower Linotype.

Under the 1886 illustration of a rather shabby-looking Blower it states: "One face, one body, one measure."

Underneath the colour illustration of the shiny new Model 9: "Eight different faces – 720 Characters."
