Item Overview

Description

This original print was part of a portfolio of 12 prints created by the students and faculty of the Ontario College Of Art in 1937 and was included in the school publication, The Tangent. The print was designed, cut and printed at the Ontario College of Art. “The staff of this year's publication have spent a great deal of time and energy in trying to bring the standard of this book definitely out of the general class of a "school magazine." After all the plans had been made, it was discovered that they would involve such expense as to render them prohibitive. But the plans were so attractive that the staff was determined to carry them out—although it involved doing much of the actual production themselves to meet the expenses. Special mention must be made of those of the production staff who were entrusted with the printing of eleven of the prints, thirty-two plates in all, or eleven thousand, two hundred impressions on a Washington hand-press—which they did at an average speed of six impressions a minute—with a total of but three "spoils". Grateful thanks are due Mr. F. Carmichael and Mr. R. W. Murphy for their patience with the staff in giving them their much-needed advice and assistance.
