As early as 1838, inventors like Thomas Davenport began experimenting with early electric motors to run printing presses. By the late 1800s, electrical power and steam engines allowed presses to churn out tens of thousands of pages per hour, giving rise to the modern mass-circulation newspaper.

Did you know? Offset lithography works because oil-based ink and water repel each other, letting ink transfer cleanly from plate to blanket to paper.

Today, we remember and honor those who have sacrificed their lives for our nation 🇺🇸 We are the home of the free, because of the brave. 

Thank you for your service, thank you for your sacrifice.
