New 22nd Edition of the Pocket Pal

50 years ago, when I started in the printing paper business one of the first things I was given was a copy of the Pocket Pal.

Thanks to Sylvamo (formerly International Paper Fine Papers), a new 22nd Edition of the Pocket Pal is now available. The first edition was published in 1934.
I received a copy of the latest edition, courtesy of Sylvamo, and it is absolutely amazing.
It covers every possible aspect of printing, paper, envelopes, scoring, binding, graphics and color reproduction and lots, lots more.
I salute all of those that have made this indispensable tool possible.
Anyone that is interested in printing and the graphic arts should have a copy. Job well done.

Hi Steve. How do I get a copy of the Pocket Pal? I’ve checked their web page and find nothing about it. Please advise. Thank you.
