Notes: "After Ben Grauer had set up the ancient Lowe hand press he had bought for $6 at a country auction, someone asked him just when he intended to print. "Oh," he replied, "between hours, I guess." That was how his press got its name. John DePol engraved on wood the hour glass-and-initial device for the press."© James Lamar Weygand | |||
