Mike Coughlin, Printer & Book Maker

I am a letterpress printer, a hot metal typesetter, a hand bookbinder, a hand paper maker and paper marbler. I publish books, pamphlets and broadsides and do commissioned book typesetting and printing as well as general commercial printing. Too many letterpress printers want to take your first child in ransom for working with you. Mind you, some first children might be good to be rid of, but you get the idea. Learn more about me.
