Summary:
|
"The Lindsay Type Foundry had its origins as a foundry established by brothers Robert and John Lindsay around 1852. Four years later, another brother joined the firm, but later separated from this partnership. The original partners then operated as the Lindsay Type Foundry from approximately 1884-1900. This catalog includes mainly type metal, with a small selection of cuts, ornaments, and rule. It also includes German type."
