History
The Printing Trades Federation Council was established in February 1896 after a series of meetings with the aim of bringing about a federation of every worker in the printing and kindred trades. The Council, made up of unions of bookbinders, lithographers, photo-engravers, and letterpress machinists, was succeeded by the Amalgamated Printing Trades Employees' Union in December 1920.
