This is just a placeholder for a global census of wooden printing presses. It contains the photographs and notes about wooden printing presses, organised geographically.<\/span> On January 15, 2019, there are descriptions of 102 presses. There are probably about 454 wooden presses in total. About 140 presses are in the USA.<\/p>\n

The search function, categories, and map work. I\u2019m working on a \u2018tagging\/sorting\u2019 system that should make it possible to select presses based on their characteristics. (And I\u2019ll make some collections: The presses mentioned by Philip Gaskell<\/a> in 1970, presses by Richard Hicks<\/a>, presses by Adam Ramage<\/a>, and replica\u2019s based on Harris & Sisson).<\/p>\n

Please note that there might be errors, omissions, and other issues. [Just tell me, and I\u2019ll correct them.]<\/p>\n
