This excerpt traces John Walter’s 1785 logographic printing attempt and the birth of the Daily Universal Register later renamed the Times. It recounts the hurdles of assembling common words as movable type, the failed system, and the modest early paper’s rise through advertisements and recollections of its plain paper and limited editorial content.
