George Walker checking cell phone at the Biting Dog Press table.

“Are there people inside this thing? How does this thing work?”



This is George trying to explain why he prints by hand when photocoping is so cheap.




Biting Dog Press Production Manager Michelle Walker wonders why she only gets $1 per hour?   Without her we wouldn’t get a thing done!



How did they print more than 200 copies of this book?    I must learn their secret.



Wood engraved portrait of William Poole by George Walker.

Bill Poole (Poole Hall Press) was George Walker's mentor and teacher for over 20 years until his death in 2001.

“My love of books and hand printing can be traced directly to Bill’s enthusiasm and encouragement.”

The Body of Ben Franklin
Printer

Like the Cover of an Old Book
Its Contents Torn Out
And Stripped of Its Lettering and Gilding
Lies Here Food for Worms
But the Work Shall not be Lost
For It Will as He Believed
Appear Once More In a New and more Elegant Edition
Revised and Corrected By the Author.
