Good description of the printer!

The Printmaker is a most peculiar being. He delights in deferred gratification and in doing what does not come naturally. He takes pleasure in working backward or in opposites:Left is right. Right is left. Backward is forward. The Printmaker, peculiar as he is, must see at least two sides to every question. Jules Heller -Printer
