Mini Halfwood Press #27
Specifications: Made in 2007. Mini Halfwood Press Number 27 of the 2004-2009 series. Ipe, walnut and brass. Billy King ordered his press in December of 2007 and took delivery six months later for travel to his Mexico Studio.
Comment: Billy saw me demonstrating at the 7th Seattle Print Fair in January, '07. I promised to hold the press until he got back from Mexico in June. As soon as he returned, he got his Mini Halfwood Press No. 27 -- the last Legacy Mini Halfwood press remaining that year.
