TOP—A compositor making final adjustment to locked-up pages before sending them for printing.
CENTRE—A flatbed machine printing one half of a 32-page section of the "Journal". Before printing the paper is trimmed into sheets of a standard size and these are fed singly into the machine, receiving an impression of type and blocks. The blank reverse side of each sheet is later printed with the pages in the other half of the section.
BOTTOM—Copies of the "Journal" being assembled from the different printed sections in the bindery ready for final trimming by guillotine. They are then wrapped and posted to subscribers.
