... that the Caslon Type Foundry made metal type (example pictured) in London for over two hundred years? Source: Neil MacMillan, A-Z of Type Designers, "opened in London's Vine Street probably in 1722 or 1723...remained in existence until 1937", Reed/Johnson (registration required) "in 1730...he had already eclipsed most of his competitors".

Only 1 of 8 nominations can have image. So, only around 13-14 would be given the image slot) – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 09:35, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
