Benjamin Day of New York, invented a machine for placing lines and dots over given surfaces. This machine will print, on the drawing, textures, such as diagonals, squares, dots, etc., wherever it touches the drawing, thus saving the artist the time required to draw them. They are more mechanical then pen lines and often much closer together. All the artist is obliged to do is to rub with a blue pencil or apply a coat of Cobalt blue water-color paint to the part of the drawing on which he wishes this machine applied. Blue will not show in the reproduction.
Cut out illustrations of Ben Day and do not confuse it with French wash, stipple or spatter work.
