OTD 6 July 1907

On 6 July 1907 the Strat­hearn Her­ald in Crieff was print­ed for the first time on the new­ly-installed Cos­sar Patent Flat Bed Web News­pa­per Print­ing Machine. The instal­la­tion had been super­vised by its inven­tor, Tom Cos­sar of Gov­an, and it pro­duced every issue until its final run on 28 March 1991. This machine is now in the care of Nation­al Muse­ums Scot­land.
