"COPPERINE," the New Type Metal.

The Only Perfect Amalgam of Tin, Copper, Antimony and Lead.

We call the special attention of printers to our new Type Metal, COPPERINE which is the result of years of experiments. All of our type is now made of this new amalgam, and it is warranted to have better lasting qualities than any other type made in the United States, and with publishers who use perfecting presses and stereotype their forms, COPPERINE type will soon be the favorite, as it will stand the stereotype process better than any type now in use.
