The Picture Tells the Story

It shows at a glance more than can be told by pages of printed matter or hours of a salesman's talk.

It appeals to all classes alike. It makes description easy. It sells when other means fail.

But It Should Be the Right Kind of a Picture.

Accuracy is important, attrac- tiveness essential.

Whenever possible it should show the object in its true colors-the extra cost is usually insignificant.

The making of such pictures requires marked intelli- gence, artists of wide experience, skilful engravers-all in one efficient organization, to insure harmonious and effective results.

Stafford engravings bring out all there is in a subject. Whether it be the smallest zinc etching or a beautiful three or four-color process halftone, the same careful attention and expert handling combine to turn out a cut that is perfectly adapted to the purpose for which it is intended.

"Acid Blast" Halftones

Small area of highlight section of halftone, enlarged, showing the deep, clean etch ob- tained by the "Acid Blast" process. The raised dots are the printing part of the plate.

Same area of highlight section as shown op- posite, except etched by the "tub method' still in use in a majority of engraving plants. Note shallowness and unevenness of dots.

"The picture tells the story!" Which kind will you have-the "Acid Blast" kind or the common kind? The cost is the same, but the difference is great.

All the big magazines, as, for instance, The Satur- day Evening Post, The Ladies' Home Journal, Collier's, etc., recommend "Acid Blast" Halftones.

They require less "make-ready".

They do not fill up as the common kind do.

They electrotype better, print better, and are better than the tub etched kind. Any good printer will tell you so.

We have the exclusive rights to the "Acid Blast" process for this territory.

Try "Acid Blast" halftones on your next order. They satisfy the customer and delight the printer.

Stafford Service and Why

Perhaps you want a single, inex- pensive cut, and never expect to order another. Perhaps you buy hundreds of dollars worth of work every year.

I N EITHER CASE you get all there is in the Stafford Service-which means Satisfying Service. If you know what you want your instructions will be faithfully followed. If you are uncertain, all our ex- perience and information is at your command.

Stafford Service Means Distinctly Special Service-an artist who is also a mechanical engineer on machinery drawings; an artist versed in anatomy on figure work, etc.

It means photographers, strippers, printers, etchers, routers, blockers, finishers, proofers, etc., who are no less artists than those who handle the brush and pencil.

And it means business men who understand busi- ness in putting the work through intelligently and promptly.
