I’ve had the pleasure of

I’ve had the pleasure of visiting two of the sites on the “Gutenberg Trail” that Fry visits in this documentary:

In 2010 we visited Basler Papiermühl as part of our family trip to Europe and Oliver got to make paper in the same workshop that Fry did.
In 2012, at the start of a trip to visit Ukraine that first took me to Germany and Sweden, I visited Mainz, where I got to see the Gutenberg Bible and to print in their teaching workshop.
