Foo particularly liked this press because it was the kind used by Benjamin Franklin himself. The ink got a little sticky though.... eww...
Ben tried to coach Foo on how to use it, but his hands were tied.

Printers Printers Everywhere
Foo had no idea there were so many different sizes and shapes of printers throughout the years. These ones were just in the entryway alone.
This Albion Press was an early model of hand printing press from the early 1800s, although Foo couldn't figure out why you'd just want to print your hands and not books...
Foo was careful to keep his distance from this one, not really wanting to get stuck in that giant roller and be a smooshed Foo...
This one was Foo's No. 1 favorite press, really only because it told him it was the No. 1, but that's good enough for Foo.
