All these interests have continued, and rolled into the career decision of becoming a full time out-of-print bookseller, and newspaper publisher. As a youngster, I also worked in my darkroom with black and white photography, and collected US Commemorative Stamps, which lead to my pleasure with history. I just enjoy surrounding myself with presses, and buy old home letter press shops whenever I can. Since that early age, my enjoyment with my presses has continued. I never break up any founts and where possible try to make sure the type goes back to someone who is going to use and love it as intended.I have enjoyed both my Kelsey and Chandler & Price letterpress printing presses since 1957. I care passionately about the heritage of Letterpress printing.

I originally became hooked on Letterpress after a chance buy at an auction, I ended up with a large collection of type and an old Adana flatbed. I occasionally have small table top presses, such as Adana 8 x 5's and the odd proofing press when available and more recently had small to mid size platens. I try to keep a rolling stock of vintage letterpress decorations, borders and ornaments, printing blocks and all kinds of other letterpress miscellany. I buy and sell most letterpress related items.
