Mergenthaler

Ottmar Mergenthaler worked twenty years on the development of his linotype machine, and ten years thereafter in perfecting it.

The Mergenthaler Linotype Company has paid out twenty millions of dollars in dividends in fourteen years.

The Mergenthaler Linotype machine appeared in crude form about 1886.

Mr. Ottman Mergenthaler of Baltimore has been working on one for ten years and it is almost ready for us.

In the following year, Stephens invented his electric plough, and Mergenthaler made an improvement on his linotype machine.
