点评:This place is a hidden jewel. It is sort of a combined art museum, and printing technology museum. There are rooms of framed examples of various examples of art created by printing the work on paper, such as wood cut prints, lithography, etc.
The principal floor area is given over to an amazing display of all sorts of printing machinery, culminating, I think, with an operating Linotype machine. This has to be one of the most complex commercial mechanical devices ever created.
The staff is knowledgeable and very friendly. They will walk with you from one area of interest to another and demonstrate various machines, giving visitors the opportunity to create keepsake printed items like a personalized book mark.
Last but not least, they own a priceless collection of historic printed documents, some from the earliest bibles. They are only open Saturdays, but it is well worth one's time to fit that into their plans.
翻译:这个地方是一颗隐藏的宝石。它有点像艺术博物馆和印刷技术博物馆的组合。房间里陈列着各种通过在纸上印刷作品而创作的艺术作品,例如木刻版画、石版画等。
主楼区域展示了令人惊叹的各种印刷机械,我认为最引人注目的是一台正在运行的 Linotype 机器。这一定是有史以来最复杂的商业机械设备之一。
工作人员知识渊博而且非常友好。他们将与您一起从一个感兴趣的区域走到另一个区域,并演示各种机器,让参观者有机会制作个性化书签等纪念品印刷品。
最后但并非最不重要的一点是,他们拥有一系列无价的历史印刷文献,其中一些来自最早的圣经。他们只在周六开放,但非常值得花时间将其纳入他们的计划中。
