>I would like to nominate this as the single most insane sentence to be posted on this mailing list all week. Perhaps all month. @James: If you are questioning the sanity of producing music this way (due to its difficulty), consider the only alternative at that time: hand engraving every mark on the music page on a copper plate with awl, hammer and symbols cast on the ends of metal punches! Believe me, this was a step up, and my wife and children had no doubt of my sanity when the paycheck arrived! :-) >Music engraving with a typewriter? Does anyone have a photo of this? I'm really intrigued! @Ryan: Sorry, the only pictures of this process I possess are memories at this point in time. We were too busy producing the music to get out a camera and develop the film!
