Excerpt from Zincography: A Practical Guide to the Art as Practised in Connexion With Letterpress Printing
Zinco-typography is Of such importance, and of SO varied a nature, that it is as a matter Of course only possible to give here a general survey such a survey is, however, Of great practical value to the te in the art, since it will prove the means Of inducing him to give further study to the subject. Devotion to his calling will prove an equal stimulus in the same direction.
Let me say, in conclusion, that most of the materials required for etching on zinc can be Obtained ready prepared, both inexpensive and of good quality, and it is consequently unadvisable, in the majority Of cases, to take the trouble of making them for oneself.
