| Description |
Adana Model printing machine. Small platen printing press. Accession Number: SH.2009.189 The Adana company was based in London and started making presses possibly around the 1920s. They specialised in small units suitable for hobbyists, but many commercial printers made use of them and of course many commercial printers began with an Adana and moved to larger presses later. The presses were all of the letterpress platen type in many variants. Adana were absorbed (around 1990) by the Caslon group one of whose specialties is thermography. This model is a No 2 Adana High Speed Press. There were three models in this series, No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3. They may have commenced production in the 1930s. Edinburgh City of Print is a joint project between City of Edinburgh Museums and the Scottish Archive of Print and Publishing History Records (SAPPHIRE). The project aims to catalogue and make accessible the wealth of printing collections held by City of Edinburgh Museums.
