We followed an unbeaten path down to south Guizhou, met the extremely hospitable Miao people in Danzhai County, admired their dazzling handmade color paper and wx printing cloth.
Miao is the dominant group in Danzhai County making up three fourth of the total population. The small village we are visiting today is called Shiqiao with couple hundred households nestled in a mountain valley. Danzhai is a place as beautiful and passionate as its name suggests. Just look at how the Danzhai people greet their visitors - an all-out party floating with songs, dances, and, the guarantee of a great party-self-brewed rice wine!
Today, ancient way of hand-made paper has been replaced by modern production and process. The tradition of hand-made paper is still kept in Shiqiao. Shiqiao Village of Danzhai County is one of the villages where villagers continue to earn their living by producing and selling hand-made papers and products. However, with modern technology, changing demand and behavior of consumers, the number of villagers who can survive by keeping this tradition has declined from year to year, to left around 40 families only.
Guizhou Tourism Administration considers tourism to be one of means to reduce poverty and increase the quality of life for the people. The Administratiion thus aims to preserve this tradition while at the same time promoting this unique culture to the world. The recipient of a PATA Foundation grant in 2006 aims to preserve a craft that locals have been practising since about 100 BC. Forty Shiqiao Village families in Guizhou Province, China (PRC) continue to earn a living producing hand-made paper and paper products. Construction of a display centre for the ancient craft of papermaking is nearly complete. A papermaking workshop is already in use.

This is the case of letterpress furniture we inherited along with the Chandler & Price press that came with our house.
Sticks of furniture are used to fill out the space between the block of composed type and the chase (frame) that carries them. The numbers stamped on the ends of each stick, and running along the bins on the side, give the stick's length in picas; not visible is the row across the top giving their widths in picas.
I spent altogether too long cleaning every stick in here yesterday, left it in the living room overnight, and found the light striking it just so this morning.

On the back side of one of my recently received type cases there is an address label and some freight stamps from a railroad. This is enough to tell the story of this case.
The case was made by the monotype foundry Harry Løhr after WWII. In 1949 it was send to Svendborg Æskefabrik who sold it to a local printing shop - Th. Isager Bogtrykkeri. The office was established in 1949, and the colors on the address label (Royal Air Force colors) tell us that the lable/case is from the period just after WWII. The case was send by railroad to Faxe Ladeplads through the railroad company ØSJS (Øst Sjællandske Jernbaneselskab) for a cost of 2 Danish kroner – 2x100 Øre. From Faxe Ladeplads it was shipped to Svendborg. From 1949 the case was the home for a 48 pkt. Super-Grotesk Bold until I acquired it and mowed the type to another case.

Went to a press check for a newsletter and got a full tour of Abbott Printing's fabulous set-up. This is the largest offset press, 4 color + Aqueous. This multi-million dollar machine prints something like 35000 large scale sheets an hour. Our 3500 item newsletter is like dessert. :)

This image shows the completed sheet being peeled off a lithographic stone.
Lithography is the art of printing from stone. The process was invented by Alois Senefelder in 1796, and the fundemental principles that he established have remained unchanged. By writing or drawing with a greasy ink on a specially prepared slab of limestone, the grease is absorbed by the stone and the image thus formed has an affinity for printing ink, while the remaining parts of the stone repel the ink as long as the surface is kept moist with water.
Lithographic presses are cylinder machines for printing from the lithographic stone or plate. In early models c1860 the stone was fixed to a bed which moved to and fro beneath a cylinder. The next major advancement was the introduction of the 'direct rotary' press with two cylinders, which, when printing, revolve continually in contact with each other. On one cylinder is the plate and the second carries the sheet. Around 1908 the 'offset press' was introduced which enables fine lines and half-tone dots to be printed on either smooth or rough-surfaced paper. The off-set machine consisted of three continually revolving cylinders. The first carrying the printing plates with its damping and inking mechanism which makes contact with the rubber blanket moulded on the middle cylinder; the blanket offsets the design to paper, carries by the third cylinder.

Signage is not just for the large boards, but also in small effective things such as plastic door signs that can be easily printed on both sides of the plastic card at a high resolution quality and sharp consistent color reproduction.

Jennifer Horton, science librarian for Morris Library, turns on a newly acquired 3D printer, the MakerBot Replicator 2, at Morris Library Friday. Depending on the complexity of a project, a 3D printer can take anywhere from 15 minutes to a few hours to produce an object. Gi Vania, the deputy director of information technology at SIU, said the printer will serve as an opportunity for students and researchers to work with cutting-edge technology on campus. A demonstration of the 3D printer takes place from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday at the Morris Library Rotunda. — Robert Olson | Daily Egyptian
