The use of linoleum for this purpose is of recent origin, this material (of suitable quality for making relief blocks) having been available for scarely more than a score of years. During this time interest in linoleum-cuts has been practically confined to teachers who have seen great educational possibilities in the new medium, and to amateurs who like to print their own Christmas cards. ...
