New Zealand School of Printing, 1971

Many thanks to Graeme How for sending these pictures in. Said Graeme: “I found these photos I captured while attending the New Zealand School of Printing at Orekei, Auckland, New Zealand, the year being 1971.

“All letterpress apprentice Printers had to attend the school once a year for two weeks during the first three years of their apprenticeship.

“No student loans in those days. Travel, accommodation, food etc was courtesy of the New Zealand Government.”
