Yeah, I understand the white foil thing. The last time foil was big was back 15 yrs ago, that’s why I bought my first foil unit. I make my own plates so I don’t need to order them. I also run all windmills and a KSB CYLINDER.I’m going to stand by my original comments. Foil is really trendy right, just like blind emboss was a few years ago. The recyclable quality is just silly. The carbon footprint of foil and the waste created from the acetate rider material negates the recycling aspect of the final product.From 2005-2012 I produced all the letterpress for Crane & CO when my shop was in Holyoke. Foil was only used on the lower end stationery lines. We used it primarily for white type on dark paper.

I have replied to your emails that keep coming in, both while I was in Missouri and now that I’m back here in NC. Are you not getting them? I sent you out another one this morning over coffee. We shipped out a box to you last week. I will call you shortly with tracking info.

Yeah I moved down here in August. Four 53′ semi trailer loads and a lot of stress. I was in Eastworks in Etown from 2002-2009 then moved to Holyoke until Aug of 2012. I’m now setup in a 1930s service station here in West Salem.Everyone was telling me I should move to Asheville.. But I was looking for more of the hillbilly moonshine culture…
