The Albion is put to good use when large groups of students or tourists are visiting to have some 'Hands On' printing. I teach how to set wood type in a galley, lock up with hemple quoins, ink up with a roller and waterbased ink ( I don't trust first timers not to get ink on themselves) then pull a few prints from the Albion flat bed or the Imperial Press flat bed.
