Linotype

A Revolutionary Machine.

Really nicely done. Unfortunately, few will understand what it is and its historical importance. This will result in unflattering ratings but know that there are a few out there who will truly appreciate it!

Thank you for the comment. Thomas Edison was quoted calling it "The Eighth Wonder of the World".

It was indeed revolutionary. I'd like to see this a little more high key, but you did well in conveying the complexity of the machinery. I remember these from my youth, they were loud, hot, and smelly. But a true wonder to watch as each line of hot lead type came forth from the inards.

 

Nice work, thanks for sharing.
