This superb book will teach you step-by-step how to produce your own original lithographic prints in your own studio or workshop, or any small space at your disposal. It shows you how to select, prepare and use litho stones that you can pick up in both hands and move around. And if you cannot afford any of the commercially available litho presses described, it shows you how you can easily construct a small press of your own, modeled after the original created by the developer of stone lithography, Aloys Senefelder (1771 - 1834), and used throughout Europe by the earliest lithographers. -- Excerpt from back cover.
