Challenge Gordon Press 1903

I am a design student at Emily Carr in Vancouver and I working on a project for a local printing firm. I want to give the design piece a sense of the companies history which started out with the above mention press. How would I go about getting a scanned copy of the owners manual specific to that machine. Basic assembly break down, parts list, etc….would be great

Hello! funny enough im an Eciad student too! you can probably find somthing on the Boxcar Press website under manuals. They have scanned manuals of all sorts of printing presses. I have a few old C&P Ad’s kicking around in my shop you can check out if you’d like.

I would be interested in seeing what you have if its older then the manuals on Boxcar, everything there seemed a bit new for what I was looking for. What are you taking at ECIAD…Design, or is that a bad assumption?

Cheers
