Default Retired from the printing industry?

RETIRED PRINTERS...Lets create an informal group of folks who retired from careers in or related to the printing industry; sales, service, graphic design, pre-press, pressroom, bindery/finishing and anything I've forgotten. Private message me if interested.

I worked at a newspaper for 30 years as an electrician. I'd be interested in a get-together. I tried to PM you your settings won't allow that,

I continue to develop and support those UV and water-based coatings that would not stick to those terrible inks that y'all would apply.

What area of the country were you in. I had a division that worked with printers (mostly NY/NJ/PA).

I wasn’t in the trade, but I wanted to see how many are aware of Pressman’s Home in east TN? It is now a ghost town. Shut down in 1967 and was the home of the pressman’s union for decades. You can’t go in there, but you can see it from the road. It is eerie.

I'm a graphic designer and still work. In college I actually set type on a Heidelberg press as a graphic arts major.
