jan 1, 1975 - Offset printing

Description:

The first offset rotary lithographic printing press was first made in England in 1975 by Robert Barclay. This type of printing allows for an inked image to be transferred between a plate to a rubber blanket which then ends up on a printing surface. The use of an offset cylinder was covered in cardboard which transferred a printed image from stone to a metal surface
