The American Printing History Association encourages the study of printing history and its related arts and skills, including calligraphy, typefounding, typography, papermaking, bookbinding, illustration, and publishing. APHA is especially, but by no means exclusively, interested in American printing history.
The national organization of the American Printing History Association lists approximately 720 members, 53 of which are also members of the Chesapeake Chapter. Many members of the Chesapeake chapter are active letterpress printers.
The Chesapeake Chapter of the American Printing History Association is centered in the Washington, DC area. The adjacent map shows a 100 mile radius.
We invite anyone with an interest to join with us to protect and further the craft of letterpress and other issues relating to printing history.
Current officers through 2008 are Mike Denker, President; Ray Nichols, Vice President; Sara Stone, Treasurer, and Stuart Bradley, Secretary.
