~~... that the 19th-century greeting cards (pictured) produced by the company Sockl and Nathan were printed by hand?~~

What does "printed by hand" mean here? Were they using block printing or just a printing press operated by hand? §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 20:07, 28 May 2013 (UTC)

Also throwing a quick glance i find few styling problems with the article. You seem to be new, so will go in details and explain you all tomorrow (sorry, no time now.) But you may start going through Help:Referencing for beginners for starter. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 20:17, 28 May 2013 (UTC)

I see, the information from the source does not go any further than "printed by hand". Could the question be reformulated "... that the 19th-century company Sockl and Nathan specialized in producing greeting cards (pictured)?" (the main points being the 19-century and the image) Yarikata (talk) 11:32, 29 May 2013 (UTC)

Sorry for delay. Its okay if we cant clarify what hand printing means. Nothing can be done about it. About references, Ref 2 and 4 are simply a google searches. That's not right. Include some other reference there. Many sentences are seen in brackets. I understand that its like a subordinate clause but brackets are not needed. Please change those. Also how about this ALT2:

ALT2 ... that afraid of persecution, the 19th-century greeting cards producer company Sockl and Nathan often excluded their name (sample pictured)?

And to support this hook we will have to use this second image where the name is actually not written. The first one has some name on it. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 20:07, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the styling suggestions, I made the necessary improvements. And your proposed ALT2 sounds even more interesting. Yarikata (talk) 10:50, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

There we go. ALT2 approved. 2nd image of roses approved. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 11:47, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

Someone other than the person who proposed the hook is required to approve it. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 20:40, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

Need an independent reviewer for both ALT2 hook and the new image added just above it. BlueMoonset (talk) 05:48, 2 June 2013 (UTC)

Looks good to go. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 18:52, 2 June 2013 (UTC)
