thanks for sharing.. at last my doubts on how books are created are being solved.. now I will appreciate every book which I am reading after knowing how hard it is to read 1.. thanks again! :)
How far we’ve come in less than 100 years. Makes you wonder how books will be consumed 100 years from now, if humans haven’t destroyed themselves by then.
I see pallet jacks haven't changed in 80 years. I love seeing these women in their dresses, standing up working for HOURS doing tedious work. Every time someone opens their yap about bringing manufacturing back from China they should watch this. Lintotype machine is awesome, one firm in San Fran (Arion Press) still does books that way, tho I think the hotmetal they're using is lead (low print runs) not copper. This process looks like it uses a ton of copper for each book. Dopeheads would come a knockin' come midnight if this was how we still made books.
@Imnothecrazyone funny...i was wondering that myself, but i guess thats how all narrators sounded -- bit of a mix of recording devices and style i guess

This is absolutely mind blowing.
I don't know how I got here, but agreed.
One of the books being printed is:
Banner by the wayside
Samuel Hopkins Adams
Random house, 1947
So I guess they're at Random House's plant.

The narrator sounds like Ronald Reagan.
