Reprint of the 1787 printing that occured in the American Musuem. Limited to 155 numbered copies; this copy is out of series. An article discussing American type faces and American type. Silver, in his THE AMERICAN PRINTER, p.146, says "In an essay printed in 1787 ... (Hopkinson) proposed an improvement in the art of printing, so as to make it expressive not only of the author's narrative, opinions, or arguments, but also of the peculiarities of his temper, the vivacity of his feelings .... Carey printed the essay with each type size displayed when Hopkinson referred to it; a description of a newspaper quarrel begins in long primer, the reply to follow in pica, the next artument in great primer, the retort in double pica, and so on, concluding with five-line pica, which indeed is as far as the art of printing, or a modern quarrel can well go."
