European Heritage Days:
Heritage at Risk

Presentation and demonstration of historical printing techniques

Experience letterpress printing, lithography, woodcut, and intaglio as they were used industrially in the 19th and 20th centuries. We demonstrate historic printing equipment, hand typesetting with lead type and mechanical presses, and show how books, newspapers, and other printed materials were produced before digital technologies and offset printing took over.
