LIBRARY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS AT URBANA-CHAMPAICN 655.53 N51c Digitized by the Internel t Archi in 2015 https://archive.org/details/catalogueOOniag EXPLAN ATIO N HE printer or advertiser will find the refer- ence matter in this catalogue in such form as to permit of a thorough exami- nation and a satisfactory selection of a suitable paper in an appropriate shade. Cover papers, that is, papers for covering cata- logues, booklets, and similar printed matter, like other products, are prepared for certain uses. In choosing a paper always consider the character and purpose of your literature and the amount of handling and rough usage it will receive. The descrip- tive pages and the reading notice at the foot of each page will assist in deciding on the proper material. There are shown in this book ten lines and over sixty shades, representing a hundred papers of various finishes, sizes, and weights. No one paper mill ever before offered so remarkable a collection of papers as the N. P. Mills do in this catalogue. LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF lUINOIS m URBANA-CHAMPAIGN ACCORD BOOK PAPER THE N. P. Mills have delayed in plac- ing a book paper on the market until such a time as they might be able to furnish a paper which would actually meet the requirements of the advertising and printing trade. In producing the four pastel shades of Accord Book Paper, the old-time colors, with their purple blues and cold grays, have been carefully avoided, and the paper stock also has been chosen because of its fine printing qualities. / Accord Book Papers are not ordinary book papers adapted to new uses, but were created especially for advertising literature. The four shades, N. P. Pastel BufF, N. P. Pastel Green, N. P. Pastel Blue, and N. P. Pastel Gray, are designed to be used in com- bination with Utility and Sultan Covers.

Quaker THIRD OF THE SERIES ON THE MAKING OF PAPER Page Six r-pi HE art of writing was an unusual accomplishment among the Arabs in the time of Mohammed and the common writing material of their neighbors, papyrus or parchment, was a rare exotic in Arabia. The Koran itself, as its various portions were from time to time revealed, was to some extent entrusted to memory, but was more generally taken dovm by the secretaries of the prophet on almost anything at all suitable that happened to be at hand. Zaid ibn Thabit, who was entrusted with the task of first collecting into one whole the scattered fragments of the work some years after Mohammed's death, gathered it, we are told, from strips of cloth, palm leaves, skins, smooth stones, the shoulder blades of sheep, the bones of camels, and from the memory of men. The scarcity of a good writing surface could hardly be more emphasized; for Mohammed was rich and powerful for years before his death, and these scattered revela- tions were regarded as the very words of Allah himself. It must be added, however, that at this time the Arabs set no ! great store upon written documents among themselves, that isome of their tribes possessed a considerable unwritten litera- ture, and that many of the Moslems knew the Koran by heart, ; and it was only when the ranks of these " Carriers of the Koran " had been thinned in a bloody battle that the project of collecting the work in a single written volume was undertaken. Whatever may have been the poverty, ignorance, or careless- ness of the Arabs at this time as regards writing material, they 4were destined not long after to become expert paper makers themselves, and to spread a knowledge of the art over the whole world of civilization. WRITING OF THE ARABS WORKING ON THE KORAN UNWRITTEN LITERA- TURE PROGRESS OF THE ARABS Accord book is a paper in perfect sympathy with the present-day advertising. N. p. PASTEL BUFF ACCORD BOOK Basis 25x38-95 lb.. Interesting, but not especially useful, the "prac- printing in tical" printer says. No, not unless there is recognizable 3R£iatu)n to in this, as in all that has been said about art in print- ^^^^J" ing, the subtle relation between the vital elements of graphic art and those refinements of knowledge and practice which tend to bring printing nearer to the arts. The connection is there, and is evident to the seeing eye. In nature and in life the sense of values is of such importance that without it objects would not have relative positions; all would be a jumble of shades and tones, objects and colors; we would stumble, as we could not see depressions ; we would grasp an arm or the empty air, when we attempted to seize a hand ; we could not judge distances. It is upon the extent and the thoroughness of the printer s knowledge of this question of values that the degree of refinement and truth he is able to impart to a certain class of work depends, and hence its money value to him and its intrin- sic value to his patrons. Accord book papers and Utility or Sultan covers permit an easy selection of book and cover papers which are in harmony. N. p. PASTEL GREEN ACCORD BOOK Basis 25 X 38 — 95 lbs. THE PERSONAL ELEMENT THE present revival of interest in printing as an art has its basis almost entirely on the personal element, which is being recognized again in much the same manner as it is in the estimates which are now made of the works of the early printers and of others who have brought distinction to their arts. Although the evidence of this personal element is more noticeable in the special kinds of book-making which have been instanced, it is, never- theless, of equal or even greater impor- tance in every well-established, thorough- going printing office, whether devoted to book or commercial work. This per- sonal taste and care are even more vital to commercial printing, which is usually intended to exercise a definite influence Book paper for publicity purposes, like the cover of a booklet, to be effective must attract.

Italia papers make exceptionally good material for this purpose as they are made of high- grade stock and will stand the hardest kind of usage without appreciable effect. Made in delicate colors, they recommend themselves for the better class of catalogues. Italia Papers are carried 20% x 25 — 45 lbs. (500 sheets). Homespun Covers are also employed a great deal for this same class of work. They are more flexible than Italia papers but not so dainty in color. In the last sample book issued by the N. P. Mills, N. P. Sage Homespun was used as a dividing sheet. Homespun Covers are carried in the 20 x 25 — 50 lbs. (500 sheets) and 20x25 — 30 lbs. (500 sheets). The main object, in selecting a paper for descrip- tive or division page, should be to see that the stock will withstand being thumbed and bent in the course of handling. It must be sufficiently pliable to avoid breaking and tearing, thus enabling it to last the life of the book.
