guides were set and the sheets run through at a moderate rate of speed. In embossing the border on Plate 56 it was also printed in a blue-gray tint over a gray tint at the same time. Many fine effects can be produced with the different embossing borders shown on Plates 54 and 55, by embossing and printing them at one impression in a tint on delicately tinted paper or cardboard. The Barytes powder can be obtained of any dealer in painter’s dry colors.
It will be noticed that the embossed work does not stand in very high relief. This is due to the fact that the sheets were subjected to great pressure during the process of binding the work, which, of course, somewhat flattened them out. This method of embossing is not suitable for heavy or hard bristol board. Any smooth stock that is somewhat soft and at the same time tough, is best for the purpose.
