WW2 Print Shop on board USS Massachusetts - video

[Dave Hughes]

A look around a print shop on board a US Navy WW2 ship at "Battleship Cove" America's fleet museum.

There's an Intertype, a Craftsman guillotine and a jobbing press with a Kluge feeder.

I don't imagine there will be many of these still existing.
