Many thanks to Flickr user Gridula for allowing these photographs that he took at the John Jarrold Printing Museum, in Norwich, Norfolk, UK to be used on Metal Type.
I have split the photographs over three pages:
Page One, Page Two, Page Three.
A Soldan Lightning Proof Press
Says Gridula: "An absolutely stunning example of a smaller Soldan Lightning Proof Press. I didn't even know this was in the museum so when I walked round the corner and saw this I nearly fell over.
The guys who volunteer at the museum didn't know it was a Soldan - they just new it as "Noreen's Press" as Noreen donated it to the museum.
