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.

As I was driving into the Hoh Rain Forest in Washington state, I stopped and took this photo of the Hoh River. The Hoh Rain Forest is one of four temperate rain forests on the Olympic Peninsula... and it receives up to 14 feet of rain per year! It was magical because as I drove along, light was filtering through the tall trees (Sitka Spruce and Western Hemlock), which were covered in hanging moss. On the forest floor, large ferns and moss covered almost everything.

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.

Dallas Morning News
Each blue 'box' is a printing press which can print full color both sides of the newsprint paper. The Dallas Morning News has 17 presses. What you don't see is that these presses are 4 stories high. It starts with a roll of paper and the press prints, folds, cuts, and collates all in one continuous process. Basically, raw material goes in, a newspaper comes out. Fascinating....
If you have time, please watch this video, especially section 3 which shows the presses as they run.
At 13 meters high and weighing 90 tons, the S-Printing Horse in Heidelberg is one of the largest horse sculptures in the world.
One of my ex-employees, Chris Barker, started a craft print business some years ago, The Smallprint Co in Derby. I bumped into him today at a craft fair in Derby’s Market Place and after a catch up chat took this pic. This is the kind of thing he does, short run letterpress printing on a bespoke basis. Caxton and Gütenburg would be proud.
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.
