Or Printers' Test Notes
Printers’ Test Notes – A Primer Or Everything You Wanted to Know About Printers’ Test Notes, But Were Afraid to Ask. Now that The Catalog of Test Notes has been split into two catalogs, one for ATM and related test notes and one for Printer related test notes, I have better means to offer a look at the test notes more familiar to bank note collectors. Printers’ test note are also called advertising, promotional, house, trial, demonstration, and color samples., ATM test notes are often colorful, but notes produced by firms involved in bank note production offer much more sophisticated specimens – showing off their latest security and durability innovations. The avid collector of high tech bank notes will find the most up-to-date notes, actually prototypes of future notes present in a test note collection. So here is a group of questions of which the answers give the collector a good start to a new collecting interest. What different types of firms produce test notes? As Sev Onyshkevych wrote in the IBNS forum, “The "printers" category also includes the entire food chain.” This means any firm contributing to a bank note being produced can also produce a test note. The types of firms which are attributed with test notes so far are: engravers, printers, paper and polymer producers, banknote designers, security ink providers, central banks, security foiling suppliers and substrate providers. Currency counters, sorters, verification machines, dispensers, and legitimate training notes providers also make test notes which make up the inventory in The Catalog of ATM Test Notes. Which firm has produced the most different test notes in the printers catalog? There are four firms with 60 or more different test notes, not including their sub varieties. -

China's Gifts to the West
CHINA'S GIFTS TO THE WEST Prepared by Professor Derk Bodde for the Committee on Asiatic Studies in American Education Reprinted with permission in China: A Teaching Workbook, Asia for Educators, Columbia University Introduction An exercise identifying Chinese inventions that we use and enjoy in daily life provides an excellent starting point for discussing both the achievements of the Chinese civilization and China's influence on the West. The article China 's Gifts to the West describes China's inventions of silk, tea, porcelain ("china"), paper, printing, gunpowder, the mariner's compass, medicines, lacquer, games (including cards, dominoes, and kites), and miscellaneous items such as umbrellas, as well as natural resources, such as plants (including peaches, apricots, and citrus fruits) and minerals (including coal and zinc), first discovered and cultivated by the Chinese. Lesson Ideas: For homework, have the students look up several items on the above list in an encyclopedia to see if they can identify their origin. Then use the article China's Gift to the West to enrich the story of how each invention was brought to the West. A second approach might be to assign individual students one invention to read about in China's Gift to the West and report to the class. A separate chapter is devoted to each of the items/inventions in the list above. Foreward In 1940 almost 10,000 new books were printed in the United States. Millions of copies of the 13,000 newspapers in the country were distributed. All of this was possible because we know how to make paper and to print with movable type — inventions which occurred in China.
