NOTES ON OLD BELPER AND OLD HELPER BOOKS. 



To revert to the " New View of Derbyshire," it has been 

 suggested that this work and others were probably printed at 

 Derby, but it may be accepted as certain that to Belper belongs 

 the credit of printing these volumes. The presses owned by 

 Mr. Samuel Mason at this period were capable of printing four 

 pages crown octavo on a single forme. The sheets were sent 

 to Derby to have the illustrations bound in. Mr. Samuel 

 Mason also printed a number of children's and educational 

 books. " Mason's | Improved | Reading made Easy ; | 

 containing | a great variety of | Spelling and Easy Lessons 



I Chiefly in Monosyllables | Likewise | a number of new 

 and I instructive pieces | adapted to the | capacities of 

 children | Ornamented with Twenty Six Engravings in Wood
