Gone are the picas and point; the leads and the slugs; the furniture and the quions; the makeready and the planing; the brayer and the proof press; the snapper and the Miehle; and gone is Mike and a lifetime of skills and craftmanship. I wonder where the spot for a Printer's Devil in Heaven. Good Bye, Mike, from the other fellow-printer that knows what a nonpariel used to be.
