"No, sir,
you can't tell WHEN
you will have to take
responsibility
for some printing"
EOPLE

are buying printing today who a few


years ago never dreamed of being called upon to
do such work.
Maybe you feel you will never have to personally
supervise a printing job. Maybe you have a man in
your office who looks after those things.
Just the same, you may be called on any day for a
decision about printing, and it is worth while to know
something about such things.

Printing consists of a film of ink less than one twothousandths of an inch thick, applied to paper.
The importance of the paper, its thickness, its weight,
its surface, becomes apparent when that fact is considered. It is all the more apparent that whatever kind of
paper is used, uniformity or a standardization of all its
qualities can make a difference in the way the printing
is done.
S. D. Warren Company recognize the need for different kinds of printing and manufacture a dozen grades
of standard uniform paper to the end that whatever you
wish to print, a standardized paper will enable you to
get better work with decreased trouble and expense.
Printers agree that this is so.
A working knowledge of the names and purposes of
Warren's Standard Printing Papers is useful information. The list of papers is at the left.

S. D. WARREN

N addition, every paper merchant selling Warren's


Standard Printing Papers distributes once each month
to printers and engravers a printed book on one
of Warren's Standard Printing Papers. These books
are intended to be cut up to serve as material for constructing dummy booklets. They contain specimens of
type and type pages set in different measures, leaded
and unleaded. They show borders, cover designs, inside page layouts, a variety of illustrations, initials, and
hand lettering. Also they show the kind of printing that
any good printer can do on the same kind of paper.
This month's book is printed on Warren's Silkote.
It can be obtained from most catalog printers or from
any paper merchant who sells Warren's Standard Printing Papers. If you do not know the Warren Distributor in your city, write us for his name.

printing

O not stint your printer on little things.


Good printers have something besides
equipment to work with.

They have talent.


At least the ability to do beautiful printing
amounts practically to a talent. It is more than
mechanical skill.
When you buy printing from a first-class
printer, you engage more than his type and
presses. You enlist his talent to serve you; and
this is the most precious thing that he has to sell.
Do not, then, expect him to get the best results from any inks but the best inks. Do not
expect him to work wonders, such as making
two colors "give the effect" of four-color process.
Remember,too, that there may be days when,
due to excessive humidity, his presses will not
work right. His paper will not deliver from
the tapes even when a flame is rigged on the
press. The inks will not dry as they should in
spite of the use of a "dryer." The whole atmospheric condition will be unfavorable to good
printing.

Work driven along under such conditions is


seldom good work. When legitimate efforts to
keep a press going have failed, emergency stunts
and attempts to fake something are not usually a
success. They only cost money, and cause the
printer to do something unworthy of his talent.

N the other hand, a good example of what can

be accomplished in simple two-color printing

is to
be seen in a book of dummy material and catalogconstruction suggestions recently issued by us on
Warren's Library Text.
Copies of this book are distributed by merchants
selling Warren's Standard Printing Papers to
printers, engravers and their salesmen, and by them
re-distributed to all interested in buying better
printing.
The book is intended to be cut up. With a
copy of this book, shears and paste, one can in
a few minutes construct a dummy made up from a
wide choice of type-faces and sizes, rules, borders,
initials, style, and medium of illustration.
These bookswe issue one each month on a different Warren Standardare not sold, but may be
obtained from catalog printers or paper merchants
who sell Warren's Standard Printing Papers. If you

Poor
Printing Paper
and the
Easy Billiard Shot
B

ILLIARD experts maintain that there is no such


thing as an easy billiard shot where a long run is
desired. So far as printing is concerned, there is no such
thing as poor printing paper except paper which runs
unevenly and is subject to vexatious variations on the
press.
It may be hard for anybody but a printer to believe,
but paper that is uniformly hard to print is easier to handle
on the press than paper that varies with every ream.
Since the only poor printing paper is paper that will
not print as it is expected to print, it follows that better
paper is the paper that will print up to a known standard
of printing quality.
That is why Warren's Standard Printing Papers are
not called merely Warren's Papers, but are known as
"Standards."
There are a dozen of these Warren Standards. Their
difference is not a difference in quality or goodness.
They are different because each paper is. made to do a
certain definite kind of work as well as it can be done.
A machine finish paper is one that is not intended
for the printing of fine-screen engravings, art subjects,
or process color work. Not having a special finish, it
is not high-priced. Warren's Cumberland Machine
Book is a machine finish paper.
The best way to know and judge this paper is to see
a book showing its possibilities, recently issued by us
to all the merchants who sell Warren's Standard Printing
Papers, and by them supplied to printers, engravers,
advertising managers, artists, and designers. If you do
not know the Warren Distributor in your city, write

RUNNING to the office this morning


won't make up for LOAFING yesterday
HERE is some incentive to hurry to
make up time you have lost yourself,
but few men like to gain time another has
lost. Like the engineer who takes the train
on the last lap of a long journey, the printer
is the man who is often expected to make
up time that has been lost by meri on the
job before him.

Partly for this reason, printers do not like


to accept jobs where the material is delivered
piecemeal. To get the copy today, and the
dummy next week, and a few engravings
the week after that, the rest of the engravings the fourth week, is usually a prelude to:
"You've had this job four weeks now,and
it isn't on the press yet!"
If your job gets behind schedule before it
is delivered complete to the printer, he may
be able to make up the timeand he may
not be. The chances are he will not.be.
A press-room is a poor place to make up
lost time.
All jobs of printing, therefore, should be
planned with a schedule that admits some
tolerance for delay.
better
paper
better
printing

Where delay occurs, it is unwise to try to speed up either engraver or pressman, if quality is
the essence of the contract.

1 AVE you seen any of the 1921 series of


1printed
books, demonstrating the printing qualities of Warren's Standard Printing Papers? They
are issued monthly. One just sent out to our
distributors is printed on Warren's Cumberland
Coated Book. Usually we try to avoid using the
word "unique" in describing printed matter, but
these books are unique. They are intended to
enable a man to sit down and in a few minutes
prepare a presentable and understandable dummy
for any sort of booklet, catalog, or folder. They
are intended to be cut up. Also, they teach the
wisdom of choosing the paper when the job is
first planned. As successful pieces of printing,
their merit is in no little part due to the fact that,
though intended for distribution this month,
they were laid out and started in the early spring
of last year.
These books are not sold, but are obtainable
through paper merchants,
selling Warren's Standard Printing Papers. If you

a paper suitable for half-tone reproductions of

Although not strictly a writing paper, Warren's
Library Text I's recommended for letters combining typewritten messages with printed pictures.
Warren's Library Text folds without breaking,
does not reflect light, and is not unlike letter
papers, yet it will print screen engravings in simple
or process colors.
You can secure a comprehensive portfolio on
the use of illustrated letters from the paper merchant .nearest you who sells Warren's Standard

HE Top Sheet in every case of a


Warren Standard Printing Paper is
printed on a sheet that is part of the
same run as the rest of the paper in that case.
This printing is done in our own testing
shop and serves as the last of a series of tests
which keep every .run of paper up to
standard.
The ink, the type, and the illustrations
used in this printing are such as would instantly betray any deficiency in the paper.
All this, even to the make-ready used,is made
a matter of record on the Top Sheet itself.
All this is helpful to the printer, because
the Top Sheet instantly removes every
feeling of uncertainty as to how a given
case of paper will print.
The Warren Top Sheet is instructive and
helpful to many persons who order printing,
and it is a great worry saver and often a time
saver for the printer.

,WAYS the printed Top Sheet belongs with the case of


Warren's Standard Printing Paper you ordered.
The Warren Top Sheet is more than a printed sample of a
Warren paper. It is a printed sample of the paper you are
paying for, because in every instance the Top Sheet is
printed from the same run of paper as the blank sheets with
which it is packed.
If you will make a collection of Top Sheets you will discover how slightly, if at all, the press-room performance .of
any Warren Standard Printing Paper varies.
Such a collection is helpful to us because it constitutes a
record of results from the use of different inks, and the
make-ready employed on a number of different subjects.
In the same way, it can be helpful and instructive in your
own press room.
Thus the Warren Top Sheet is more than an example of
fine printingmore than an assurance that your own order
of paper has been put to a practical test. Whatever quality
of printing is shown on a Warren Top Sheet, is printing
that any good printer is perfectly safe in undertaking to
deliver.

produce hundreds of tons of paperpaper
known everywhere for its quality, to printers and people who buy printing.

Tremendous volumein twenty standard gradesmeans a saving in overhead


not possible in small-tonnage production.
Some of these giant machines run steadily day after dayweek after weekon a
single Warren grade. The men who run the
machines know these papers and how to
make them to the Warren standard, as
they know how to eat and to walk.
Their work reaches a degree of efficiency
that effects great savings. No time is lost
experimenting; a minimum of time is spent
in changing runs.
The Warren policy of standardization
saves money for the printer.
Men and machine that run one paper
for weeks at a stretch produce quality that
could not be maintained under a system
involving frequent shifts in personnel, and

spasmodic runs, first of one paper, then of


another.
Warren quality is consistently maintained. Your shipment of Warren's Cameo
or Warren's Cumberland Coatedor
Warren's Olde Style, bought this month
will be as nearly like the shipment you
bought of these selfsame papers last year
as it is humanly possible to make it, bearing
in mind, however, that no possible refinements or improvements are overlooked.
The thickness of the sheets will be uniform; the printing surface will show no
annoying variations.
You, as a printer, know full well what
uniformity means to you. You know that
torn and wrinkled sheets make it necessary
to stop the press. You know that every
time you havelo stop the press it costs you

money. You know that variations in paper


hamper the economical operation of your
presses and reduce your profits.
Warren's Standard Printing Papers are
carefully inspected and sorted before they
leave the Mill. It costs you less when this
is done by us at the Mill than it Would if
you had to eliminate imperfect sheets at
the press.
Better paper is a necessary element of
better printing.

TODAY THEY CALL HIM "ALDUS"


LDUS PIUS MANUTIUS
of Venice was the true
father of your pocketsize book. He aimed,in the
days of Columbus,to popularize the long-hidden
literatures of Greece and Rome. From
small italic types he printed pocket
editions of most of the pagan authors.
Our modern publishers take Aldus for
model when they rescue great works in
English from the comparative obscurity
of heavy, unwieldy volumes, reissuing
them on strong,thin,light-weight printing papers made by S. D. Warren
Company.
To be able to use such recently perfected thin printing paper as Warren's
India is a great advantage possessed by
your modern publisher over Aldus Pius

Manutius of Venice. The "Aldines"


were small books, comprising works of
no great magnitude. But writings of
length can be compressed into portable,
convenient form on Warren's India
running 1420 pages to the inch.
The pocket-size volumes of the New
Century Library (Thomas Nelson
& Sons, New York) would delight the
maker of the Aldines. For in these
India-paper editions of standard
authors the influence of William
Morris's gothic mediaevalism on typography has given way to a more lucid
style, traceable to the classic models of
Italy. And for the sake of that compactness Aldus valued so highly in printed
books, Warren's India would appeal
to him as a tremendous improvement
over fifteenth-century printing papers.

Now,he who rides may read


N TRAINS and trolley
cars you see all kinds of
people reading out of
small, handy volumes.
This marked extension
ofthe book-reading habit is due to the introduction of thin India paper and hence
of books convenient to carry about.
There are 1420 pages in an unbound
book one inch thick printed on Warren's
India. So that even writings of merciless prolixity can be compressed to
"pocket size" on Warren's India, without using type so small as to strain
the eyesight.
A noted professor at Harvard once
declared that it was well worth a broken
leg to spend the enforced leisure of slow
recovery in reading"Clarissa Harlowe."

He assumed, no doubt correctly,that


none but the bedridden nowadays read
the longest novel ever written. But when
some publisher reprints "Clarissa," as
Thomas Nelson & Sons, New York,
have already reprinted the works of
Fielding and Smollett, in light, handy
volumes on Warren's Indiafthe novelist
Richardson may once again surpass his
seventeenth century rivals in popularity. For even "Clarissa" could easily
be carried in the commuter's pocket
in a thin India edition.
Eventually, every worth-while book
of magnitude and length will exist in
convenient, portable form. Already a
large number of such writings have been
born anew on Warren's India paper.

EFORE the art of


printing began to rise,
scriveners spoke with pride of
their huge editions, runninlinto
hundreds of copies. Well they
might, for monastic copyists
spent months in lettering a single
book by hand. Then Gutenberg
started his press,and men began
to draw on nature's garden to
feed the printing press.
Books for everybody! So
nature must have intended. For
the sources of printing paper
can hardly fail. Paper is really
cellulose; and cellulose is that
abounding substance which
forms the walls of vegetable cells
and does for plants what framework and rafters do for houses.
But nature must have intended that books should be
beautiful as well as abundant.
Transformed into Warren's

Standard Printing Papers,cellulose provides ideal surfaces to


receive ink impressions. Fine
book paper is smooth, even, and
pleasing to the eye and touch.
It absorbs just enough ink to
bring out text and illustration
with clear fidelity. It is permanent and lasting.
Some one of these papers is
the suitable paper for any piece
of fine printing. For one example,
the American Book Company,
New York,choseWarren'sCumberland Machine Book paper in
publishing Lewis & Hosic's
"Practical English." Such a book
is obviously intended for wide
circulation and every-day use.
But however fine the paper
chosen, cellulose is mother of
them all. Each and every good
printing paper is made possible
by nature's lavish gift.
