Welcoming a new WSB sponsor: Liberty Bell Printing

We’ve said this before and we’ll say it again – if you haven’t wandered The Junction lately, you may not realize just how much it has to offer. Among its one-of-a-kind businesses is the one that’s just joined the WSB sponsor team, Liberty Bell Printing. As always with new sponsors, we offer them the chance to share information about themselves with you, and here’s what Liberty Bell wants you to know: “As your local full service printer, we would like to take a moment to introduce ourselves. We are Liberty Bell Printing and we are West Seattle’s oldest and most reliable full service printing and copier shop. Founded in 1973 to serve the West Seattle business and residential community, today Liberty Bell still maintains the personalized service, welcoming atmosphere, and high quality printing that launched our shop more than 35 years ago. Still privately owned and operated, Liberty Bell offers a unique opportunity for you to experience the Old World charm of a traditional print shop interpreted through the powerful dynamics of our modern, leading-edge print capabilities. The result is a printing experience that is defined by our traditional values, sustained by our commitment to quality, and is competitively priced to compete in today’s marketplace. We are confident that once you experience the quality and care of Liberty Bell, we will be your first choice for printing in West Seattle. Liberty Bell also has the largest selection of prints and gifts by Bellingham, Washington, Artist Jody Bergsma.” Liberty Bell Printing is in the West Seattle Junction at 4736 California SW, on the east side of the street between Alaska and Edmunds (map), 206-935-1212. We welcome Liberty Bell to the WSB sponsor team and thank them for supporting West Seattle’s 24/7/365 news/information/discussion source; the current sponsor lineup is all here along with info on how to join!

Although I haven’t had much of a need for Liberty Bell’s sevices over the years, I am glad they have been such a long time fixture in the Junction.

I always enjoy glancing at the old printing press in the window as I walk by. My Dad was a pressman by trade, working at Craftsman Press downtown through the late ’60’s.

He had his own press, just like Liberty Bell’s, in our basement, though he had painted his battleship gray. He would make business cards and such for people. I was always fascinated watching the “mechanics” of the press as he would run it. It was really cool to go down to Craftsman, and watch the big presses run!

Imagine my surprise a few years back, as I was walking past Liberty Bell, and saw someone running a job on the old press! All these years I thought it was just there for show, and didn’t realize it was actually operational!

Liberty did our wedding invitations and thank you cards. They did an excellent job and were extrememly nice and helpful to a couple that didn’t really know what they were doing! I would recommend them to anyone.
