"We have pleasure in submitting in this new specimen book a range of some our latest Three-Colour Process Inks. ... Preceding each series is a brief preface furnishing special information as to certain qualities of the inks--their light resistance, their varnishability, their alkali resistance or otherwise--as well as giving certain hints in regard to the series taken as a whole. The question of light resistance is one which has become in the past few years increasingly important, and we have available information and suggestions which are at all times at our customers' disposal. On the following page are set forth our definitions of the terms which throughout this book are applied to the different inks, and we define exactly what we mean by permanent, fast, etc."--From foreword.
