History
The Printer's Union began in 1842 with the establishment of the Association for the Support of Sick Printers and Type designers in Vienna (German: Unterstützungsvereins für erkrankte Buchdrucker und Schriftgießer in Wien). The union was banned in the 1930s, but was re-established by the Austrian Trade Union Federation in 1945. By 1998, it had 18,023 members.[1]
The union merged with the Union of Private Sector Employees in 2007 to become the GPA-DJP, the nation's largest union. At that time of its dissolution it was the oldest trade union in Austria.

gollark: What if I don't want to?
gollark: They just don't make sense. Do they go up or down or sideways? What if I put in a really, really big number - can it reach the thing it asymptotically tends towards *then*? What if I want it to output a different value? Are bees holomorphic?
gollark: However, I don't know how asymptotes work, so I'm just going for slightly increasing it each time.
gollark: It must asymptotically approach 6.1 as it approaches completion.
