The town of Derge is famous for its three-storey printing house, or parkhang, built in 1729, where Kangyur, a collection of Buddhist scriptures and Tengyur, a collection of commentaries, are still printed from wooden blocks. It was established during the reign of Derge king Tenpa Tsering. The printing house, run by monks, continues to use its ancient techniques and uses no electricity. The roof is used for drying the printed sheets.
It has been estimated that the 217,000 blocks stored at Derge comprise 70% of the Tibetan literary heritage. Derge knows all.
The town also contains several historic Tibetan monasteries, notably the Gongchen Monastery.
During my high school years I had a girlfriend whose dad worked as a printer for the San Francisco Chronicle. He smelled a bit like an old newspaper that had been stored in the attic for a few eons, and the tips of his fingers were permanently stained black. That was many years ago, and my assumption has been, that with the advent of the internet and high speed copy machines, the use of conventional ink printing had largely gone the way of the white elephant--extinct.
Not so, it appears. Half Moon Bay still sports an old print shop and from the looks of it, there could very well be some ink printing involved. To tell the truth though, I wasn't about to hang around and try to examine the fingers of the employees as they exited the building. I was afraid my eye might end up blacker than their fingers.

Traditionally the center of Nashville’s nightlife, Printers Alley was, in its earlier days, a series of posts where men bound for the courthouse hitched their horses. By the turn of the twentieth century, it had become the center of Nashville’s printing industry; in its heyday, circa 1915, thirteen publishers and ten printers were located in the area serviced by the alley. Nashville’s two largest newspapers, The Tennessean and the Nashville Banner had their offices here at one time. The street contained hotels, restaurants, and saloons, many of the latter becoming speakeasies when Prohibition went into effect in 1909. Nightclubs opened here in the 1940s, and the alley became a showcase for the talents of performers such as Boots Randolph, Chet Atkins, Waylon Jennings, Dottie West, The Supremes, Hank Williams, Barbara Mandrell, and Jimi Hendrix. Today’s nightclubs are the descendants of the saloons, speakeasies, and clubs which developed into the entertainment district still known as Printers Alley. ~ nashvilledowntown.com/go/printers-alley
