Hi to everyone!
I am italian and my english is very poor and I am a beginner
I must to looking for help so far from my country because in Italy there are not forum like this, about letterpress.
BiBi is the name of my first press (A), it seems an Albion but without ornaments, logos or marks, a misterious lovely machine. Probably a good reproduction of early 1900 (?). I use her to print woodcuts.
A doubt: I had mounted on tympan a sheet of felt, is it right? Paperboard is better?
And then this little press (B) what is this? It is very strange.
Another press I have is like a vandercook but smaller, and I will post a image too soon, perhaps someone of you can help me to understand how to use it.
