Glossary of Terms 2 Forward – The EMA Guide to Envelopes & Mailing The envelope is only a folded piece of paper yet it is an important part of our national communications system. The power of the envelope is the power to touch someone else in a very personal way. The envelope has been used to convey important messages of national interest or just to say “hello.” It may contain a greeting card sent to a friend or relative, a bill or other important notice. The envelope never bothers you during the dinner hour nor does it shout at you in the middle of a television program. The envelope is a silent messenger – a very personal way to tell someone you care or get them interested in your product or service. Many people purchase envelopes over the counter and have never stopped to think about everything that goes into the production of an envelope.

  • Triangle Accordion Books Part 2
    “Part Two: Assembling the book” Time from start to finish = 1 hour You will need the following materials: • Heavy paper, which will be cut into three 4 5/8” X 20” strips, the best option is to cut these strips from one large 22” X 30” sheet of watercolor paper (this will be used for the inner “accordion” of the book) • 2 pieces of chipboard or thick cardboard, 6x6 inches each • Painted paper or scrapbooking paper at least 6x6 inches in size • Pencil • Ruler • Glue (regular white glue or glue sticks) • Clean scrap paper, computer paper or newsprint is good • X-acto Knife or scissors • Cutting matt (or a piece of scrap cardboard to protect your work surface) Brief description: The next part of our process is to measure, cut and assemble your book. This part is made up of several smaller steps within each major step and requires precise measurement and patience. For Part Two, I suggest making a cup of your favorite tea and putting on some relaxing music in the background. While, this may be the most challenging step for some, if you follow the instructions closely and don’t rush, you should come out of it with a fully assembled book ready for creative alteration and decoration! For those new to bookmaking here are a few helpful hints: • Measure! Measure! Measure!: Nothing is more disappointing than assembling several pieces only to find at the final step that they don’t quite fit, especially when you’re out of materials to try again! During this process, we will be measuring out strips of paper, then folding, cutting and gluing them together at specific points.

  • Catalogue of Manuscripts in the Roth Collection’, Contributed by Cecil Roth Himself to the Alexander Marx Jubilee Volume (New York, 1950), Where It Forms Pp
    Handlist 164 LEEDS UNIVERSITY LIBRARY Provisional handlist of manuscripts in the Roth Collection Introduction Dr Cecil Roth (1899-1970), the Jewish historian, was born on 5 March 1899 in Dalston, London, the youngest of the four sons of Joseph and Etty Roth. Educated at the City of London School, he saw active service in France in 1918 and then read history at Merton College, Oxford, obtaining a first class degree in modern history in 1922, and a DPhil in 1924; his thesis was published in 1925 as The Last Florentine Republic. In 1928 he married Irene Rosalind Davis. They had no children. Roth soon turned to Jewish studies, his interest from childhood, when he had a traditional religious education and learned Hebrew from the Cairo Genizah scholar Jacob Mann. He supported himself by freelance writing until in 1939 he received a specially created readership in post-biblical Jewish studies at the University of Oxford, where he taught until his retirement in 1964. He then settled in Israel and divided his last years between New York, where he was visiting professor at Queens’ College in City University and Stern College, and Jerusalem. He died in Jerusalem on 21 June 1970. Roth’s literary output was immense, ranging from definitive histories of the Jews both globally and in several particular countries, to bibliographical works, studies of painting, scholarly research, notably on the Dead Sea scrolls, and biographical works. But his crowning achievement was the editorship of the Encyclopaedia Judaica, which appeared in the year of his death. Throughout his life Roth collected both books and manuscripts, and art objects.

  • Study of the Windows of Window Envelopes for the Purpose of Developing Standard Specifications
    DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE AUG BUREAU OF STANDARDS George K.

UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE WASHINGTON 1927 T343 STUDY OF THE WINDOWS OF WINDOW ENVELOPES FOR THE PURPOSE OF DEVELOPING STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS By R. E. Lofton ABSTRACT This paper gives an idea of the extent of the use of window envelopes, and also the importance of this matter to postal employees, especially mail clerks, since windows of poor transparency and high gloss would cause serious eyestrain and loss of time in distributing the mails. For the purpose of getting data upon which specifications for transparency and gloss might be based, glassine papers, one-piece and two-piece windows, and a few semitransparent materials were tested. One-piece envelopes are those made from a single sheet of paper in which the window is made by impregnating that part of the envelope pattern through which the address is to be read with a suit- able oil or varnish. Two-piece envelopes are those made from two pieces of paper. The envelope pattern is cut from an opaque sheet of paper; the window is then cut out, and subsequently covered with glassine paper. For permanenc}7 of transparency, the glassine paper windows were better than the one-piece windows.
