With all this stuff about Linotype you might be interested in a chance
of seeing one demonstrated.
There is a small printing museum in the Lake District town of
Cockermouth. It is behind a stationery shop next door to Wordsworth's
House. Sorry I cannot find the phone number at present.
They have a large display of printing presses and give a guided
tour/demonstration. The Linotype machine was not working the day that
I went. ;(
The area also has some nice hills and lakes too!
