(Introduction) 'Let me say at once that my love for the fine Wilson roman type- face, on which GEORGIAN has been primarily based, was first excited nearly fifty years ago. This affection never waned, and when, rather more than thirty years ago, the Marr Type Founding Company of Edinburgh was dispersed and, as I was credibly informed at the time, the matrices of this type-face, which had for many years been in the possession of that old foundry, had been purchased and destroyed, I felt that an injustice had been done to the printers' craft. Understanding the reason assigned for their destruction, I still felt as a printer that such action was a catastrophe...' George W. Jones
