Dr. Rusty Maisel

Recently passed away but was long recognized as an authority on manuscript traditions and early printing history. His decades of practical research led him to design and build several full-size, working replicas of the Gutenberg Printing Press. He was always a joy to have in our home. His lasting work is the Enduring Word Museum, John Sliffe is carrying on his work.

He gifted me a silver scroll container, and his presence in our home was always a joy.
