About these WEB PAGES

We are on the Web courtesy of VICNET.

Our Director, Michael Isaachsen, has been incrementally updating this website ever since its first edition in 1996 (with which he was ably assisted by Alana Wignell). Now David Hatton of ComputerBank is giving much valued assistance, especially with the LINUX-based computer equipment donated by them.

The Museum would be glad of help with the ongoing task of compiling information and images for the website.

Many pages are unfinished, and many more yet to be started. Even so, it is hoped that viewers will gain a useful impresssion of the range of our collection and services, as well as an interesting overview of the craft of `real printing'.

Mission Statement and Collection Policy

" . . . not just to preserve the machines but to provide an ambience in which experienced printers will be inspired to pass on their knowledge and practical experience."


Our Origin as a Typefoundry

Australian Type Company, Australia's last typefoundry, converted its collection into a museum.
