Specimens of dinosaurs which once walked the earth...

Hey, watch that! :-) I operated one of those Linotypes/Intertypes between 1955-1967. Was a great trade and gave me good pay and a chance to see the country in my shiftless/unmarried days as a tramp printer.

I loved that business and developed a great respect for the Fourth Estate back in those days.

All gone now. Just good memories of good times.

Myself. Been a news junkie for 50 years. About the late 60's the Fourth Estate became a propaganda organ for Marxism.
