Frank Moonlights as a Mime(ograph)
Frank has his mind on the Mimeograph. This stencil duplicator was once the primary reproduction device for schools, churches, and other organizations. It was replaced by the copier, the duplicator offset press, and now the printer/scanner. Most of office communication is now electronic.

Ditto?

Spirit duplicating wasn’t far behind. In high school or college we all remember the smell of alcohol which reacted with the dye to create the print. The alcohol of course was on the paper which we smelled. My first job was working for a company that made the Masters Plus we actually made books for schools where the teacher could remove a master, print and return it to be used again. The dye was very powerful and lasted for a period of time. Ahhhh, those were the days!??

The mineograph machine was my first experience with ‘operating a press’. In second grade, I had gotten permission to print a one-page conic strip on the mimeo in the elementary school office. I think I sold a couple copies to classmates for a nickel. Lots of fun, and my interest in printing and the graphic arts just grew from there.
