If you have been following along our longer videos, you’ll know that we have been getting quite a few packages in the mail addressed for Jared, Howard, and our print shop exhibit.
Social media has connected us with people from all over the world and we sometimes get wonderful gifts from followers. We received a package in the mail addressed from Pizzola in Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania.
In this video, Howard opened the package consisting of a photo engraving, which was made sometime in the 1940s-1950s. At the end of this video, Howard letterpress printed the cut using our Washington hand press, which was made in 1852. This follower must remember that a few months ago we said in a video that we didn’t have a cut depicting a handshake. We are incredibly thankful for this gift and it is a wonderful addition to our print shop exhibit at the Sacramento History Museum.
