Tried to remind hard where i have seen such a thing as John described; and at last I could . In my early childhood, when I was probably a student of first or second standard, I went to a printer's workshop with my father, for some of his publications . I seen there a huge machine, printing pages one by one as a man pulls a rod. It was making a noise, too.
At that place, I also seen some metallic words of mirror shape, placed in cases. A man putting them side by side in a metal tray, to make a page. Easy to read, just place it in front of a mirror. I was astonished a lot.
Whatever it may be, it made me remind my father. Thanks a lot, John !
I have a high school friend whose father owned and ran a local newspaper. Got to sit at the machine that melts the metal and type a few lines in. It was quite an experience to see all the trays of type and the mirrors for proofing.
Truly amazing of the progress we have made in this field.
