Spa Day for the Vandercook: Learning Basic Press Maintenance

I was fortunate to spend a day in my studio with Paul Moxon, a master book designer, printer, and author of the book, Vandercook Presses: Maintenance, History and Resources (4th edition of this important book will be published soon).

Vandercook Universal III Repairs
