The Symbol of Service in fine Book-making


THE distinctive Conkey Winged Horse trade mark is symbolic of over fifty years of develop- ment in the printing arts. It typifies an institution of capability. The immense Conkey plant embodies mental and mechanical equipment that has suc- ceeded in manufacturing fine books for over a half-century.


The Winged Horse imprint in your book signifies quality from cover to cover. It assures strength of construction, fine papers, excellent typography, and long service.


The ability to produce fine books is a Conkey achievement that should be of profitable interest to you.
