Printing techniques

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.
CN L537 comes to a stop at the end of double-track territory at Kelley behind a pair of IC SD70s. The train has just emerged from underneath McCormick Place which is located next to the historic R.R. Donnelley printing plant on the right, built in segments between 1912 and 1929.
An M636, C430, and an RS3M await the call to duty outside of the Western New York & Pennsylvania shop in Olean, NY. The M636 has since been sold to the Delaware Lackawanna, and the rest of the WNYP's once large fleet of 6 axle Alco and MLW products have been sidelined by second hand GE AC6000CWs. The 4 axle Alcos continue to work hard for the railroad, for now.

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.

Street art Frankey gives the city small inconspicuous surprises. Sometimes quite large, sometimes very small. Every week a photo with one of his recent works appears in the supplement to the newspaper Het Parool. A great opportunity to take a closer look at his work. Sometimes you have to search to find it and sometimes it is already gone.
A giant bronze mailbox mounted on the facade of the former Senefelder printing house in Amsterdam. From it hangs an impossibly long centerfold, as if the presses inside never stopped running. At the bottom, a life-sized Frankey carefully studies the pages, like a child discovering a freshly delivered magazine for the very first time.
Inspired by memories of printed magazines, the excitement of finding them in the mailbox, and the hidden stories that old buildings carry with them. [ Frankey ]

Streetart Frankey
Streetart Frankey (pseudonym of Frank de Ruwe) is a Dutch artist who wants to positively influence the street scene with relatively small and often inconspicuous works of art.
He grew up in Nijmegen, father was an inventor at Philips Netherlands. He studied at Delft University of Technology (Industrial design). In daily life director of and working for design collective Natwerk. In Amsterdam, many of his works in the street art category can be found on buildings, streets and bridges, often in addition to existing building elements. He himself about his work;
"I want to push boundaries. Art has no boundaries, that's why I like it so much."
In 2019, a special page has been dedicated to his art in Het Parool for a number of years; first he took care of that section himself, later he had to leave that work to others because of busy work. A little later his work Eberhard van der Laan appeared above the entrance of Paradiso.
One of the works that inspired him is the Boomzagertje in the Leidsebosje, a work by an as yet unknown artist.

Four Union Pacific SD70Ms have an intermodal train in tow as they roll under the signal bridge and approach the Rock Island diamond in Joliet, IL, one summer morning back in 2012.
