Thanks are due to Schuyler Shipley, of Skyline Type Foundry, for preserving this document and making it available.

The type specimens reprinted here were published in the US without copyright notice after 1963 but, I am assuming, before 1978. If so, they would have passed into the public domain upon initial publication.
