2010 Hall of Fame: Joe Metzger - Wealth of Knowledge

"That was the first time we had to morph," Metzger notes. "I've always said, 'we don't know what we're going to be selling in the next 10 years, because we don't know what's next on the horizon.' "

Morph the company did, transforming from typesetting to a service bureau, then a prepress house, printer, mailer, and digital printing operation. Meanwhile, many of the big names in printing from around the Toledo area in the 1970s and early 1980s went away, with some of their most talented individuals ultimately joining Metzgers. In fact, Metzgers now resides in the building that formerly housed Len Beech and Associates, which closed in 2003.
