When printing was as much an art form as a technology.
Or, the day the people at the Print Shop at History San José set me and my camera loose in their type storage cabinets.
Having had some experience with off-set printing in the past, it was interesting to see how they used to do it.

Bali is a small island of the Indonesian archipelago. It is located 9 degrees south of the equator, between the Indian and Pacific Ocean, and blessed by fertile volcanic soil and much tropical rainfalls. Rice can be harvest here three times a year.
Commercial tourism has not effected this remote part of Bali.
I chosed to live there for some time from 1989 to 1991 and then returned for a visit every year. For me, Karangasem in the East, is the most beautiful part pf Bali!
I took this photo in 2001 with an analogue Nikon FE camera and 35mm Kodak Gold, ISO 200 negative film, and then scanned with Nikon Coolscan IVED film scanner.

(Image taken recently with a B&W Analog roll film camera).
Very happy with the results from using Perceptol as the film developer. Was able to get almost no grain and high sharpness on my 35mm SLR. Great for printing large.

The Hagen Open-air Museum (LWL-Freilichtmuseum Hagen – Westfälisches Landesmuseum für Handwerk und Technik; English: "LWL Open-air Museum Hagen – Westphalian State Museum for Craft and Technics") is a museum at Hagen in the southeastern Ruhr area, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. It was founded, together with the Detmold Open-air Museum, in 1960, and was first opened to the public in the early 1970s. The museum is run by the Landschaftsverband Westfalen-Lippe (LWL, regional authority for Westphalia and Lippe within North Rhine-Westphalia). It lies in the Hagen neighbourhood of Selbecke south of Eilpe in the Mäckingerbach valley.
The open-air museum brings a bit of skilled-trade history into the present, and it takes a hands-on approach. On its grounds stretching for about 42 ha, not only are urban and rural trades simply "displayed" along with their workshops and tools, but in more than twenty of the nearly sixty rebuilt workshops, they are still practised, and interested visitors can, sometimes by themselves, take part in the production.
As early as the 1920s, there were efforts by a group of engineers and historical preservationists to preserve technological monuments for posterity. The initiator, Wilhelm Claas, even suggested the Mäckingerbach valley as a good place for a museum to that end. The narrow valley was chosen, as wind, water and wood were the three most important location factors for industry in the 18th and 19th centuries.
In 1960, the Westphalian Open-Air Museum was founded, and thirteen years later, the gates opened to the public. Unlike most open-air museums, which show everyday life on the farm or in the country as it was in days gone by, the Hagen Open-Air Museum puts the history of these activities in Westphalia in the fore. From the late 18th century through the early years of the Industrial Revolution to the highly industrialized society emerging in the early 20th century, the visitor can experience the development of these trades and the industry in the region.
Crafts and trades demonstrated at the Westphalian Open-Air Museum include ropemaking, smithing, brewing, baking, tanning, printing, milling, papermaking, and much more. A favourite attraction is the triphammer workshop shown in the image above. Once the hammer is engaged, a craftsman goes to work noisily forging a scythe, passing it between the hammer and the anvil underneath in a process called peening.
The Hagen Westphalian Open-Air Museum is open from March or April until October.
I should do more with my photos. I have printed off a load for the flat that are framed in the hall but apart from paying £70 for a massive canvas that i gave away i've not really done much printing.
I seen a photobook review in a photography magazine that i occasionally buy(Digital Photography) and thought why not give that a try. So i went for the company that got the highest score in the review(Bobs Books). The book ended up being £49, the one on review was £39 but that was before p&p and i spent £5 on a cool gloss on the cover lettering.
The quality is great and i've got no complaints but for £49 you would hope that is standard! The only reason i justified buying the book was because i sold a few photographs and it would be rude not to put a bit of the money back into something that helped me make a bit of money from something i enjoy.
Lith print (8x12cm) using Moersch Easy Lith 20+20+960 on expired Kodabrome II. Generous overexposure of 3-4 stops at least, followed by relatively short development time (for Lith).
Camera: Nikon F2 (1976), beautifully brassed & beaten, with Nikkor 50mm/f1.8 AI.
Note: my normal reading glasses are +2.00. I found out that I need +1.00 for manual focussing, as apparently the eye thinks it needs to focus at 1 meter with SLR finders.

This week's episode of the Toy Photographers Podcast is all about printing! I spoke with Shelly Corbett and Kristina Alexanderson about not only how, but why you should print your photos. You can check out our conversation here.
Another photo from my trip to Beckford Silk. This is a Silk Printing Block. They were used before screen printing took over. Beckford Silk bought a collection of these blocks from David Evans Ltd who had been silk printers since the 1850s, but they closed about 10 years ago. The blocks were made between the 1890s and the 1920s.
