A Few Facts That You Ought to Know fl Printing has now become a fine art which first catches the eye then it infiltrates the mind. Design has been the subject of serious thought since the time that Ptah-Hotep wrote his Book of Manners, approximately eight or nine thousand years ago. Darius, the great king of Persia, took the side of the Mountain “Behistun, flattened one side of it, and at a point three hundred feet from the ground had his history written, and it's there today for any one to study and speculate upon its perfect typography. C, We are not descendants of Darius nor even Ptah-Hotep. But we are all young men and we stand back of the Quality of our work. Every department of our shop is under the supervision of a thoroughly practical man. who is a member of the firm and who has the firm’s success in mind and hence the desire to give our customers the very best quality that is in them.
