PRINTING INDUSTRY VETERANS — LASTING IMPRESSIONS

Mikalson has seen his share of the inane and absurd, like the newbie who walked out during the 9:30 a.m. break on his first day and was never seen or heard from again. Mikalson himself has lasted considerably longer, starting at his family’s shop, Artcraft Press, in 1961. He became general manager in the late 1960s, and stayed on following the company’s acquisition by Royle in 1986. Mikalson moved over to the Sun Prairie headquarters, performing customer service and estimating before settling into inside sales, which he has done for the past 10 years.
