The birth and evolution of The Type & Copy Shop Stationers is a tale of advancing technology. In 1970, Mr Frank Summerfield, a Chartered Consulting Engineer, diversified his admin department into the Copy Shop and Secretarial Services. The early 1980s saw growth into a busy telex bureau. The potential rise of fax was quickly spotted and as predicted, the fax bureau services took over telex. Word processors overtook typewriters, then computers with sophisticated word processing, desktop publishing and graphics facilities overtook dedicated word processors. Matrix printers were replaced with beautiful quality laser printers. Top quality digital photocopiers transformed the old image photocopying. Complementary binding and laminating facilities were added to provide a total onestop service. Ammonia plan printing machines gave way to clean, smart, largesize plan photocopying. With the advent of full colour laser copying pages burst into life in colour. The Type & Copy Shop Stationers pioneered the way in the North of England with the original Canon laser copier. A spinoff from this was the colour printing onto tshirts, sweatshirts, jigsaws and the like, the client simply providing the image. Next, the reception was enhanced into a well stocked supplies shop alongside catalogue mail ordering of stationery sundries. As the MD is amongst the ever increasing number of enthusiasts with a family tree tracing hobby, family tree presentation became a further addition to the list of services offered. Frank continues his structural engineering practice [Structural Engineering] whilst the copy shop and secretarial services have been carried out by his assistants a friendly, helpful team :. We look forward to being of service to you
