This Dictionary of Typography was originally compiled at the suggestion of the late Mr. Joseph M. Powell, and issued in monthly instalments with the Printers' Register.
On its completion it was so well received, both by the Press and Printers generally, that a demand sprang up for copies which it was found impossible to satisfy.
Mr. Powell then proposed a re-issue, and arranged with the author for the complete revision of the book. This second edition will, it is hoped, be found at least as useful to the trade as was the first.
Simultaneously with its original publication in England, the Dictionary was published in the Printers' Circular of Philadelphia, United States, by the editor of which it was revised. The improvements made in this way have been adopted in preparing this edition for press.
