I LANSTON TYPE COMPANY I GERALD GIAMPA I
¶ INK BRAYER on a brass ink slab. The brayer is used for pulling a quick proof on a small proof press, in this case a Nowland.
Most design time was spent working in this area. Nowlands were simple and effective.
Giampa had been trained to pull reproduction proofs on a proof planer. That takes some skill. However the brayer shown here would not be suitable for such work, it is too worn out.

¶ HOW MANY SHEEP have you seen grazing the grassy hills on a quad of these devices? Not too many one would think! A sheep's foot is a leather device used by early printers for inking type formes.
BRAYER, Sheeps foot? I get it.
