| Description | Bromide print. Photographed by the Archaeological Section of the Midland Institute. Exterior view of north side of type foundry situated at the back of High Street. A note on the back of the photograph originally stated that the foundry was the Baskerville's Typesetting Foundry, but a later pencil notes states that this was not the case; the foundry actually belonged to a Mr Swinne, who bought many of Baskerville's types (see James Bissett's 'Magnificent Directory of Birmingham'). |
