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.

The printing plate of a typical Amsterdam canal warehouse from 300 years ago in lead and brass (I think) to get an original inked screen print of that. This was in the shop window of a small printing house with a press. I suspect that this printing plate is about 30 years old.

Structure printer mounted to a [larger] wheeled platform. Had to cheat a bit and use some wire to keep the track links straight.
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.
