My whole working life in the print industry encompassing employment in jobbing printers, web offset (newspapers), magazines and journals, inplant print. I then decided I had the necessary experience and in partnership formed a small print firm which then expanded to become a well respected colour print company winning several national print awards in the process. The company focussed on quality print and targetted design agencies and resulted in many London based designers and their blue chip end users. We sold the company on to some of our employees (didn't want to undertake another long lease) and remained for several years before retiring completely.
