Keeping printing alive

I showed this video to my 12 year old son and he was blown away by the technology of yesteryear.

It was filmed at Firely Press in Massachusetts.

You can get a look at some fantastic old school typesetting and letterpress work at an exhibition this Sunday at the Melbourne Museum of Printing.

Entrance is free. And legendary Melbourne post punk band the Primitive Calculators will be performing on the day.
