Posted for Judith Yaross Lee:


Carl and Larry, I will be happy to share privately an account I wrote long ago on Paige Compositor that does include the technical history of it and the competition, but I am traveling and can't do so just now.  Meanwhile, here is a citation:

Lee, Judith Yaross.  "Anatomy of A Fascinating Failure." [Mark Twain and the Paige Compositor]. American Heritage of Invention and Technology 3 (Summer 1987): 55-60.
