"Graphic Arts Crafts is actually a guide to seven separate crafts, surveying the various graphic arts processes- everything from how linoleum is made, through the history of wood engraving, down to how to handle squeegee in silk-screen printing. Chapters are based in the various processes of linoleum block printing, lithography, bookbinding, and letter-press printing. Each of the crafts is given through treatment, aided by a wealth of illustrations. The instruction assumes no experience on the part of the reader, and the techniques, along with the equipment they entail, are kept always within the capabilities of the average hobbyist; information takes the form of step by step directions."-- from dust-jacket.
