Summary
"The Charlestown branch of E. White & Co. was sold in 1819 to the partnership of Timothy Bedlington, a bookbinder and Charles Ewer, owner of a book store in Boston. In 1820 Bedlington and Ewer released the first type catalog displaying some of their products. This catalog includes all the type and ornaments of their own manufacture at the Boston foundry, which would evolve into Boston Type and Stereotype Foundry after the business was sold again." --Annenberg, M. "Type Foundries of America and Their Catalogs," page 70-73.
