This museum is supposed to tell the story of printing.I have no idea if this is correct.The first roomm is fine concerning the beginings of printing.However all of the rest of the rooms have no english narrative and are of little interest.the last room does have english narrative.Unfortunately the progress towards modern day printing is told in such technical terms...
