My dad was a printer, they used to use ells. -
Yes they all used to chop marks but this guy was so over the top and passionate about it that it still stands out in my memory so vividly.

On a different post we were discussing units of measurements. Not wanting to highjack the post, I thought we could discuss here. What is the origin of Dennison's. @Waggyonly one lecturer insisting on units of measurement, all mine did.  -
I used to have a lecturer during my Engineering classes who was always beating a drum about quoting units, I remember one day he was so exasperated with our class he said "quote your units!!!!...I don't care what units JUST QUOTE THEM!!!" My next assignment I calculated the velocity and quoted the units, something along the lines of: "Thus the velocity of the body will be 0.00345 furlongs per fortnight" He graded my work as an F, then crossed it out and gave me an A+, turns out he had a sense of humor after all.
