today i delivered some work to TOM PAINE Printing Press, in Lewes, 151 the high street... which apparently is the centre of the cosmos. Peter Chasseaud runs the shop and studio, with a working 18th century common press. His work and shop are pictured below:  TO SHOW THE COMPLEXITIES OF LETTERPRESS TECHNOLOGY AND THE CRUCIAL IMPORTANCE OF THE PRINTED WORD IN DISSEMINATING IDEAS.  my country is the world, and my religion is to do good , Thomas Paine, Rights of Man 1791
