Join Amanda Scardamaglia as she discusses her fascinating book 'Printed on Sone: The Lithographs of Charles Troedel'.
Troedel was a master printer and lithographer, and the face behind the production of most of Australia’s early advertising posters, product labels, and other print ephemera, as well as the iconic Melbourne Album. 'Printed on Stone' with Amanda Scardamaglia examines how the print technology of lithography shaped the development of the intellectual property system, and the way advertising came to be regulated. The book also presents the first visual history of print advertising in Australia and in so doing, provides a valuable illustrated social and legal history of Australia.
