Pictures from my latest visit can be found at https://www.prepressure.com/printing/museum/plantin-moretus-revisited – There are links to pages about a few other museums as well – the playing card museum in Turnhout and the stoneprinting museum in Valkenswaard are also worth a visit.

Was great to meet up with Patrick Goosens in Antwerp as well and enjoy his hospitality in showing me around the Plantin Museum and his own material. To think I went all the way to Antwerp from Australia to view a Plantin bible only to find on my return home that there were two different editions with 100 miles of my home!
