blind impressions
Virtually the same process as BLIND BLOCKING ,
except that it generally applies to hand tooling.
In blind impressions, there are generally two
impressions of the tool or letter, the first made
through the design or lettering on paper with a
warm tool and a second done directly on the
impression. This second step assures an evenness
and straightness of the impression, and, because
the impression through the paper is larger, the
second makes the final impression the correct
size. (161 )
