Why was this site created....
[October 26, 2005]
After some general discussions on the LETPRESS list during the
fall of 2004, I offered to start collecting the autobiographical information of letterpress printers who wanted to be included in
a future website project. It was a noted fact that all bios would have to be submitted by the printer and would not be edited
by me except for format and spelling errors. (Yes, I can spell, but the typing is another story, so if you see any typos, please
let me know...)
It took me about a year, but I have finally put all the pieces together, developed the website, registered the
domain and now have things off and running! I would love to see bios up on this website for all of the APA, NAPA, AAPA and other
letterpress organizations in the world. That would be a grand endeavor, and might actually require a little assistance from
others, but at least the project is started. Let's see how it goes and where we are in a few months.
