[Groop] Did I err? The Groo Plates

[Chris Schechner]

John,

That¹s just too cool! Not only Groo, but but some old, almost museum-worthy
technology. Years ago, I worked for a printing company that still had some
letterpresses and some old hot metal type machines that they used very
rarely. I just love all that old stuff and used to spend time wandering
through the back room looking at all of it and getting stories from the old
pressmen. Anyway, it¹s cool that you have them. Treasure them, as I know you
do.

Chris
