Offered for the first time—a long-needed service for duplicating material printed on both sides of a page— without the disadvantages of ordinary one-sided elec-trostatic reproduction methods.

Page-for-page exact reproduction by D U O P A G E * means that page numbers are no longer partly hidden in bindings. If page numbers appeared in the outer margins of the original book—that's where they are on DUOPAGE* reproductions.

The traditional order of pagination is maintained, too, with the DUOPAGE* method—page one on the right-hand leaf, page two on the reverse of page one, etc.

D U O P A G E * reproductions are made on quality rag paper, and volumes are supplied bound or un-bound. Write Micro Photo Inc. to find out how to re-place volumes in your l ibrary with D U O P A G E *
