Speaker 1 (00:54):
It's say forty fifty five KRCD talk station, Happy Friday,
away from the headier news and talk about something that
I learned a little bit about and I was unaware
of I'm want to welcome to the fifty five Carsey
Morning Show, Gary Walton, who's with the Cincinnati Type and
Print Museum. Gary, it's a real pleasure to have you
on the program. My mom took the tour of the
(01:14):
Print and Type Museum and brought it to my Attention's like, wow,
I didn't even know we had one of those. And
then she starts going on about the Cincinnati having such
a really big connection with printing, this whole concept of
the art of printing. It's good to have you on
the program. Gary, Welcome.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Oh my pleasure to be able to share with Cincinnatians
our motto, which is life revolves around print.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Yes, indeed, and was a Guggenheim event to the printing
press bringing print to the masses. What an amazing transformation,
transformative moment in history that was. But it is an
art form. It does take skills, and it does take
training to learn how to do this. But the point
that you do, there are career opportunities printing.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Absolutely. Cincinnati has over three hundred printing establishments. When I
say that, people look at me funny, And how would
you know there's three hundred Because we mail our newsletter
to over three hundred printing establishments. There is a huge
shortage of graphic arts people going into print. Most of
abody's being design, which is really a crowded field. But
(02:28):
you need to consider the idea of going into print.
And when you think of print, you're thinking probably the newspapers,
which are not doing very well. But the print is
way more than newspapers. And next time you go into
a Walmart, just take a look at all the packaging
that's there. There's over three hundred and fifty thousand packages
that all need to produce every day. Your foreign matual
is printed, your wallpapers printed, your appliances are printed, the
(02:50):
clothing that you wear is printed. And in the future,
the new technology which I want Cincinnati be a leader
in is something called printing electronics, where we actually print
electronic circuit boards. And we can do that right now,
print electronic circuit boards, print parts of batteries, and I
actually print antennas and other devices. So in the next
five ten years, every electronic device starts in a press room.
(03:14):
So and I can say I went Cincinnati, Ohio to
be a leader in print electronics. And that's one of
the things we're really pushing here at the Cincinnati Tick
and Print Museum.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Well, Gary, you just hit upon something that takes me
in a different direction. That's the last thing I was
thinking about. When you talk about printing, I'm thinking about,
you know, the the paint and block where you stamp
it in old school methodologies, and when you type, set
and all that. Of course, a lot of that going
the way of the DODO with modern computer printing, but
that it's outside of the realm of just printing things
(03:44):
that you view visually or that you read. And I
guess you're talking about a form of three D printing.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
No, this is people immediately seeing three D printing. We're
talking about traditional presses that every printer in Cincinnati has,
and all the magic is in the ink. The ink
is the magic. The ink is what conducts the flow
of electricity. Batteries are just liquids of chemicals, so why
can't we print liquid chemicals instead of liquid aks. So
(04:12):
it's just traditional presses, not three D printing, not anything magical,
just traditional presses. Now, the advantage of printingletronics is huge
cost savings. So if you're manufacturing it's a cell phone,
for example, I don't know if you noticed but the
iPhone thirteen sold for one thousand dollars because I had one.
I fell off the back of a truck the other
day and cracked it, so I had to get an
(04:32):
iPhone sixteen. The sixteen only cost me eight hundred dollars.
Now why did it drop two hundred dollars Because of
printed electronics. Your cell phone at this present moment now
eighteen percent of its twenty percent is printed on a press.
I can show you a picture at the museum where
we have fifty phones up on a press sheet and
the circuit board is printed, the antennau was printed, and
(04:52):
parts of the battery. So this is the future. And
also the other using we the printing industry are going
to say the world of by reducing the use of
fossil fuels. We have samples here at the Museum of
printed solar panels. No we're talking about it is it's
a plastic that you have it that we printed and
the costs went from three hundred dollars to twenty dollars. See,
(05:13):
this is going to change everything. And in the future
your whole car will be a solar panel.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
And people who visit it is my mind is blown.
I mean I've learned more about printing here in the
last couple of minutes with you, Gary than I ever
thought was even out there. Now people will learn all
about this and when they take a tour of the
of the type in Print Museum. This is how my
mom stumbled upon it. But you talk about all this
when you do tours.
Speaker 3 (05:39):
Yeah, So we want to encourage people to make an appointment,
to go on our website and make an appointment, because
this is a working museum. You don't come and just look.
We put an apron on you and you actually physically print,
and so we'll talk about the future of printing, and
we'll talk about the past of printing. So when you
leave here, you will become an ambassador for print like
your mom had. Yeah. Actually, you to reach us, and
(06:01):
that's our goal to make everybody and bachelor's a print
in Cincinnati. You realized one hundred years ago was the
second largest printing center in the world, and we said,
we just have this history. And today twenty twenty five,
we're still very strong. We're the twelfth largest printing center.
There are forty cities in this country that are bigger
than we are, but we do more print the printing
industry in Cincinnati is still extremely strong.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
Eye opening reality going on here. It's Cincinnati Typeprint Museum
dot org and Joe Streker will add that to my
blog and podcast page fifty five caroc dot com. I
saw an article on the Wall Street tran was either
today or yesterday talking about the trades and high school
juniors that are you know out there in the world.
There's a lot of companies out there that are interacting
(06:45):
with juniors and folks in the shop programs and hiring
them right out of high school with career salary level jobs.
And I would imagine this type of trade would be
a wonderful opportunity for a young person. Do you have
high Are you working with high schoolers along those lines
at the Type Print Museum?
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Yes, we worked with Cincinnati Public schools and are training
some of the individuals there. I also go out to
I taught printing for thirty five years at Cincinnati State,
and I'm happy to say that many of my graduates
are making more money than some people with four your degrees.
We had one hundred percent placement of our students when
I was there, Just showing you the need for people
(07:28):
going into the printing industry. So people who are making
c's got really good jobs because the demand was so
high and the supply was so low. And that's the
case of all printing cities across the United States. There
is a choice. Our number one problem is a lack
of qualified, willing workers in our industry, and that's our fault.
We did a bad job of promoting ourselves. And here
(07:48):
at cincinnt teme In Print Museum, we're going to change
that well.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
And I'm glad to be able to help you achieve
that goal. I just I find the whole thing fascinating. Now,
do you do his historic type printing? Like going back
to my idea when I was in high school or
in elementary school, you carved a wood block and then
you put different colors and stamped it to make a
graphic design poster. Does that work still being done there?
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Yes, the arts community still enjoys doing with a called
minodum blocks or woodcuts, and so that's being done and
we will be offering in the future classes on that.
But when you come to the museum, the first thing
you can see as an authentic Johann Gutenberg printing press
from fourteen fifty five, and Gutenberg's main invention wasn't the press,
(08:31):
but it's something called mobile type individual letters that he
could assemble the form words, send this paragraphs and actual pages.
And we'll go ahead and give you a litt announcement
here on June twenty fourth, twenty fifth, and twenty eighth,
we're going to be honoring Gutenberg's six hundred and twenty
fifth birthday, and you can come to museum and you
can actually print page one of the Book of Genesis
(08:54):
the way that he would actually have printed it, and
the individuals be the one actually doing that printing, not
mean you'll be doing it and then take a copy home.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
That sounds like a lot of fun and interesting and
historically informative as well. Type and Print Museum since any
Type in Print Museum online, it's Cincinnati Type Print Museum
dot org. Schedule the tour and do it in advance.
I'll just show up. Obviously, it's a very busy place.
And man, I'm telling you real eye opening reality that
(09:24):
there's a lot of opportunities for careers out there in
the print world. Gary Walton, I really appreciate the time
you spent with my listeners with me today. It's been
really enlightening, informative, and I'm going to head on out
there myself at some point. Good good, all right, brother,
good luck out there. I'm sure you're gonna get your
phone rigging. I'm sure you're gonna get your phone rigging
