Major George Portable Printing Press A2
We have been arranging the manufacture of this press for over 15 years now and they have been very well received by printmakers, both professional and amateur, Art Centres, college and schools.
We are able to offer this press at a very competitive price because they are manufactured locally, saving transport costs and our overhead base is low. However, the logistics and effort involved in supplying this press via courier have now proved too much and therefore we can now only offer hand delivery within 50 miles of Buckingham, at a cost of 50p per mile based upon the return journey, max £50, or free customer collection. The price of steel continues to rise which means we should increase the price by £50 to £949. However we have decided to absorb this extra cost for the time being and therefore the price remains at:
£899
Blanket sets of 3 are available at a price of £130 per set

Suitable for Collagraph, lino cuts, and all forms of intaglio printing, these presses, built by precision engineers are ideal for schools, art colleges, art centres and for artists, both amateur and professional. Designed and developed by ex-Art teacher and professional artist Kim Major-George.
Please note that ‘A2’ refers to the size of the plate the press will deal with rather than the size of the paper receiving the print, thus allowing a generous border around your finished prints.
We are below the obligatory registration threshold, so VAT is not involved in our price.
