About John Webber

John Webber was a Printer/Compositor A Compositor was the person who inset each letter of a word into the frames for printing. They would arrange type for printing or key texts into a composing machine. It needed the ability to read in mirror image, which apparently comes easier to those who are naturally left handed! Computers have now taken over that job.
