Hall of Fame--Dedication in Many Forms

Democrat Printing faced a crossroads equipment-wise in 1959. The Frautschis were using flatbed, two-color letterpress equipment that was "clunking" along, printing magazines and publications in four colors. That meant two trips through the press, on both sides, a total of four passes. It wasn't as productive as Democrat Printing needed it to be, so a change was in the making. The new kid in town, web offset printing, was just what the printer ordered.
