Thanks Allen
All good information, although I don't think it was the evil drink in
this case that would explain all these the differences!

Hi David,
I read the discussion and checked the pics provided. If there was only
one printer (and one printing company location) for all the paper
involved, it is obvious that the examples were manufactured at
different times. However, the subtle differences can be due to
different printers / locations / printing companies, as well as the
restoration process.
I used to be a printer some time ago (1970s), on machines as small as
an ABDick letterpress to as large as a Harris 35x45 or a Miehle 43x60.
Large machines had their own platforms / walkways, and bars so the
printer would not fall off the machine to prevent serious injury. All
printers in those days were male and nearly all of the older printers
were alcoholics. Differences in finished product (even in the same
plant) could be due to (among others) different machines, printers,
registration, ink, plates, paper quality, what time of day finished
product was manufactured (printers were less concerned as they
continued to drink all day), indoor temperature and air conditioning
(yeah, humidity played a heckuva part in printing). Now ... nearly
every difference has now been corrected by improved technology.
