2000 Lieberman Memorial Lecture John Randle The 2000 Lecture was delivered on October 2, by the British printer John Randle on "Ink, Type and Serendipity" at 5:30 p.m., Van Pelt Library, 6th floor, University of Pennsylvania, 3420 Walnut Street Philadelphia, PA. All Lieberman lectures are free and open to the public. John and Rose Randle started the Whittington Press twenty-seven years ago, as partly the result of an early enthusiasm for Caslon type, Albion presses, and hand-made paper; and as partly weekend escape from London publishing jobs. The Press has printed and published some 150 titles, including belles lettres, collections of wood-engravings, bibliographies of other presses, type specimens, and its internationally acclaimed annual review for printers & bibliophiles, Matrix. The evening's talk will include serendipitous tales of the acquisition of letterpress equipment, foundry and Monotype types and paper stock.
