old letterpress texts available online

Not sure if this has been mentioned before but I stumbled upon this last night.

I already knew archive.org was good for videos, etc but never looked at it’s texts library.

anyhow, here’s a link to get you started.

http://www.archive.org/search.php?query=printing%20AND%20mediatype%3Atex...

few specimen books and the printer’s handbook of trade recipes, etc.

enjoy.
