Summary:
|
The New England Type Foundry went through many changes of ownership and eventually bankruptcy, operating from 1824-1886. By 1851 there had been five changes of management before the firm of Hobart & Robbins took control of the company. This catalog, the first issued by Hobart & Robbins, includes: type metal, wood type, cuts, ornaments, and rule.
