Hall of Fame--Dedication in Many Forms

As a young boy, Frautschi remembers his father bringing home linotype slugs wrapped in butcher's paper with a string tied around it. They would melt the type and pour molten lead into the top of molds to make hundreds of little toy soldiers.

After graduating from prep school in Colorado during World War II, Frautschi attended Amherst College, then Carnegie Tech's School of Printing Management. Upon graduation, he entered the army and taught offset presswork in the map reproduction unit at Ft. Belvoir, VA.
