Reading Room MAGAZINELAND U.S.A. Conclusion

We Have Already Seen...

...on the 50th Anniversary of their current plant's "christening" the operators of the largest comic book/comic strip printing facility in America celebrated with a promotional comic detailing how a comic book was created and printed!
After covering the editorial and preparation processes (and segueing into a photo album about the "early days") we now return to the printing plant itself...





As you can see, this was a major operation...


Besides the comic, there were tours of the facility.
This one, during the June 18th, 1977, featured Phil Seuling, known as the Father of the Direct Market and Comic Book Stores!

And that's how comics were produced from the 1930s until the early 1980s, when going to offset printing resulted in a slow transition to Canadian printers.
