type founder

John Baskerville, an English printer and type founder, of rare celebrity, died.

Anthony Bessemer was also eminently successful as a type-founder.

It is to be remembered, however, that in the early days of printing, every printer was his own type-founder.

Franklin had Didot, the master type founder, come to Passy to teach Ben how "to cast printing types."

He tried the trades of publisher, printer, type-founder, and succeeded in encumbering himself with debt.
