Between around 2015 and 2021 I collected material on the development of printing machines. With effort it was possible to find extensive documentation, including sale catalogues and ephemera issued by various printing machine manufacturers. In March 2021 I found a very small and modestly produced pamphlet issued by R. Hoe & Co. in November 1896 for the sale of second-hand machines that they took in trade, probably mostly against the purchase of newer and improved machines. This was the first brochure of its type that I found. Reproductions of all 8 small pages are attached.
