ADVERTISEMENT: Intaglio/Engraving Printing Demonstrations & Presentations for schools, libraries, college, historical societies, etc. Now Booking! The program takes a look at the Engravings of Paul Revere in the 1770s and how it affected the American Revolution, including the infamous "Boston Massacre" print. A great way to supplement America 250th commemorations and curricula! Either a slide-lecture with prints, or, a full-on printing demonstration with a portable printing press. Contact me for more info! (the program can instead be focused
on overall Intaglio printing in the New England area ca. 1630 -
1800) NOTICE: Living History page is
