The guy at 9:05 screwed up. We were taught to NEVER put the plane face down to keep from picking up something that would scratch the type or plates.

This really brings back memories. The industry took a major hit when offset printing and computer typesetting took over.

we used a hand press alongside our modern stuff every day until a few years ago :)

how our industry have changed: from a labor intensive one that assured people of their jobs to one that emphasizes on speed and digital production at the expense of jobs for the glorification of profits.

I think this video is amazing. Our print production class really enjoyed it. We learned so much.

How come this film is titled as 1947, but the title card at the beginning of the film has roman numerals stating 1956? Is this because it was ahead of it's time? Us old London comps notice these things!
