Tom Leech demonstrates how to make a printer's hat from a newspaper. Printer hat-making is part of the many activities at the annual Christmas at the Palace event each December at the Palace of the Governors in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
When I was a young boy I would sometimes go with my father when he had to make overnight print runs. He and his fellow workers would often make these hats for me. Seeing this brought back fond memories of my early childhood and my father. Glad to see preservation of history, interesting and fun.
thanks my grandfather was a printer at the Boston Globe and other papers. He showed me how but I was young and never got it. Now I just Made one thanks.
