The Invasion.
An illustrated uproar. The loose type marches down in close ranks and starts eating the paper margins. You hold the brayer: one ink dot at a time — choose your firing windows well. Watch the press beat — when it races, the case is nearly empty. And beware the Intruder, which crosses the plate off-schedule.

Fig. 4 — The three sorts of loose type, shown in both marching frames. The paper margins are eaten away pixel by pixel; at the bottom, the green press bar keeps the scar of every enemy hit.
