Print your name with wood type in the “Alphabet Factory”, see printing presses dating back to the 1880s, as well as “ancient” computers, and type on an actual typewriter at the Museum of Printing’s Printing Arts Fair, September 23, located at 15 Thornton Avenue in Haverhill.
Then see and hear the amazing Linotype, the 8th wonder of the world, and hear the soothing sounds of its matts dropping to be cast, then redistributed automatically. Set your name the way news was set for 80 years – from 600-degree molten metal. Then print it on a proof press to prove to the world you are a Slug Caster.
