The first printing of the King James Bible (seriously, old English is quite interesting. It's almost that english fan ti zi), and all the more fascinating.
London, 1611.
Known as the 'Great He' Bible because of a misprint at Ruth 3:15 of 'he' instead for 'she'.

I had hoped to acquire type punches for the Tiny Type Museum, knowing there were perhaps millions made across centuries, and that there might have been a lot left with the failure of type foundries.
(What’s a type punch? It's the starting point for creating metal type from likely Gutenberg's studio through the late 1880s, and then less frequently thereafter. A punch is carved by hand by a master cutter in soft steel. When complete, the steel is hardened, and then struck into a brass or copper planchet, a slab that is then finished to make a mold, called a matrix. The mold is then cast by hand or in an automatic machine to make individual pieces of type. In the 1880s, Linn Boyd Benton developed a way to cut punches and later matrices with a motor-driven pantograph, dramatically speeding up the creation of type faces and sizes.) A handful of people still have some skill with the art and some have trained a younger generation.)
However, from research and discussion, I believe that nearly all punches were discarded in previous eras—in bankruptcies in the late 19th century, as ATF moved about, absolutely and horribly at ATF’s dissolution in the 1980s, and through neglect, disinterest, and ignorance. I am sure there are on the order of tens of thousands of punches starting from the 1500s that are in museums—and that’s where you’ll have to go to see them, because they are precious enough that if I had acquired some, I would likely have donated them to an institution for perpetual care.
These punches I acquired from Rich Kegler of P22 Type Foundry; he had bought them hoping they were type punches as well! But they are in fact more common machinists’ punches, these used to stamp letters and numbers into tools. Because they demonstrate the principle of punches, I'm including one each in the Tiny Type Museums with an explanation of what they are. Instead of being carved, they were certainly cast from molds, but the shape and purpose winds up being fairly similar. And you can hold and own one of these less-precious items!
I did see an enormous number of genuine and historic type punches in London. St Bride Printing Library has one portion of the Caslon type foundry’s punches, some of which date to the 1600s; the Type Archive has the rest. (The Caslon foundry went bankrupt in 1937. The working material was purchased by one firm and the historic by another. That material descended ultimately to the two London institutions.)

From my earliest 2011 PLA prints. This is, I think, a most typical example of what happens when newbie printing (hurried, insufficiently calibrated for dimensions, unrefined skeinforge profile, etc.) meets weak, insufficiently evaluated design.
Trying to clip the LM8UU bearing in resulted in failure of the piece at its weakest points.
Userland solutions: more dimensional calibration cycles, more experience, better control of extruder reversal distance.
Thoughtful designers should take into account the typical limitations of newcomers printing, and provide simple, failproof designs, even if they consume a bit more material. The long bridge has also puzzled more than a few.
Caring about simplicity when designing is, in my view, an important mark of respect towards beginners.

This weird Adana is no longer in my possession but I took a photo before passing it on. The platen stays still and as you turn the handle the whole bed assembly goes back and forth to print. The curved back to the bed is the ink plate and the rollers go round and round over the top and back underneath. This is similar to the principle of the T/P 48.
I can't imagine how you would operate it with only two hands without keep stopping and starting and I'm not at all surprised that there were three different designs in the two years it was on sale.
Here are some exciting images of the first test piece of my current development for 3D printing... but can anyone guess what it is?
Lino printing, our last task at art lesson for the second term.
Theme : A person with a tank, which presents her/his personality.
My idea of this :)
Had a difficult time with this, especially if you had cut your finger ... believe me, it sucked ! D:
All the streets in the old town of Ahmedabad have very specific functions. This one featured nothing but women sat in little shelters from the sun and dirt, busily engaged in traditional block-printing. I can't begin to describe how incredibly quickly these women work - they really fly through each piece of fabric, simply flinging them onto a heap in the road when they're done!
Scrappy Apparel is a screen printing company that offers customized screen printing and wide variety of embroidery services. It provides the customers with discharge printing services. The discharge screen printing services allows the customers to print any designs on dark colored apparels. Basically, for this printing, the discharge ink used in this printing allows the printers to bleach out the exiting dye from the clothe. After that the discharged area is dyed with another type of ink as chosen by the customer. From soft prints on t-shirts to vintage looks, users can get that very easily.
Steamroller!
Printing!
Together at last!
At the 2007 Roadworks: Steamroller Printing and Street Fair, linocut prints are inked and pressed by a two ton steamroller. The finished work is auctioned off to benefit the San Francisco Center for the Book.
