An advertisement showcasing Mander Brothers letterpress inks captures vibrant hues on paper through color lithography – reminding us that journalism is not just about words but also visual storytelling. Antique printing presses stand as relics from bygone eras when every word was meticulously set by hand – testament to how far journalism has come since its humble beginnings.
