Litho Printing at Second State Press

Today we printed our drawings using a modified lithography technique at Second State Press, using lower-toxicity process with litho plates from Z-Acryl. 

Emilia demonstrates rolling up the ink onto a leather roller...
 
...and John demonstrates his roll-up technique.

Myron wets the plate.
Floyd rolls the plate up with ink.
John, who may have been a lithographer in a past life, runs the plate through the press.
John proudly displays the final print.
