"Practical Lithography" by Alfred Seymour is a technical manual written in the early 20th century. The book focuses on the craft of lithography, a printing technique that utilizes stone or metal plates, providing detailed instruction on the processes, materials, and equipment involved in the art of lithographic printing. It aims to serve as a comprehensive guide for both novices and experienced craftsmen in the field. The opening of the book introduces the historical context behind lithography, highlighting the contributions of Alois Senefelder, the inventor of the process. It discusses the significance of stone preparation, including the selection and treatment of Bavarian limestone, which is deemed essential for quality lithographic prints. The author emphasizes the importance of both traditional techniques and modern machinery in achieving high standards in lithography, setting the stage for exploring various printing methods in further detail throughout the manual.
