The backside of several flongs. I did this scan to show the kinds of marks that would be made in typical handling.
These paper molds are called flongs, which were made for casting metal plates for printing, typically to build up a page for a newspaper. Flongs were made by taking an original and under high pressure, creating a molded inverse, which was then in turn cast in type metal. These all look to be from the early 1970s, just before letterpress/relief printing was in its dying days, used increasingly only by newspapers before they switched to modern offset, a massive expense.

These are images for screen printing (a Thermofax screen) that I have drawn. Great for adding color or embellishment to art journals, background paintings, wearables and any number of things. Suitable for framing also. Email me for more info or visit my Etsy shop to look at all of them.
Outside India Mill in Darwen, there is an old printing machine originally used in the mill. (I know - I visited there in the early 70s!) This is part of the foam on one of the rollers which has been affected by the elements and time.
Team Penn State begins printing a subscale habitat structure at NASA's 3D-Printed Habitat Challenge, held at the Caterpillar Edwards Demonstration & Learning Center in Edwards, Illinois, May 1-4, 2019. The habitat print is the final level of the multi-phase competition, which began in in 2015. The 3D-Printed Habitat Challenge is a competition to create sustainable shelters suitable for the Moon, Mars or beyond using resources available on-site in these locations. The challenge is managed by NASA's Centennial Challenges program, and partner Bradley University of Peoria, Illinois.

This is the printing block that the previous halftones were printed from (see accompanying photos). The plate is attached to a wood block to make it type high. It's difficult to see the positive image when looking at this reverse one but I am pleased with the results. Oh, the highlight on the cross is the above light fixture, not miraculous!

Six Centuries of Type & Printing is a book by yours truly about the history of printing from Gutenberg’s development of mass-production of consistently cast metal printing types. (I dive briefly into the history owed to mostly anonymous printers before him, some centuries before.)
The book walks through all the varied technological developments that took us from c. 1450 to the present, including many elements often forgotten in modern times, like “flong” (paper page molds that made rotary presses possible), electrotyping (for reproducing printing types—and pirating them), and the pantograph.
Illustrated with a combination of historic line art and adaptations of modern photographs, and with jaunty endpapers designed by me featuring elements of printing production from hand molds to floppy disks, the book is designed to last the ages. It comes in a slipcase, and can be ordered as its own item directly from tinytypemuseum.com

This has been such fun...printing out my favorite phrase. I used foam produce trays to make the plate, and then rolled acrylic paint on. I printed on to manuscript paper and sentence strip...
