"Linotype Manual" by Various is a handbook from the late 1800s that explains everything about using and fixing the Linotype machine, which was a big deal for setting type back then. It was made for people in the printing business, like machine operators and repair technicians and tells them how to get the most out of the Linotype. The manual goes through how to set up the machine, keep the metal at the right temperature, hook up the gas, and make all sorts of adjustments. It has easy-to-follow directions for taking care of each part of the machine, with pictures to help. The book stresses the importance of keeping the machine in good shape to avoid problems, like metal spitting out when it's being cast, and gives advice on how to solve common issues that operators might face, making it super useful for keeping the Linotype running smoothly and producing quality typesetting.
