We often show videos using a tabletop printing press but behind each video, a lot of copies are made. In this press run, Jared letterpress prints an electrotype of the California State Capitol in the 1890s from the Lewis Winter Collection, an electrotype of a locomotive made in the 1930s, and the Howard Powered photo engraving made a couple years ago. This video shows inking a 3x5 Kelsey Excelsior tabletop printing press with black rubber base ink and printing a copy of each. Jared didn’t print
