Most of what I am writing is based solely upon memory that is now 6 or 7 months old. Production of the bookmarks went smoothly. We designed and printed […]

Seated, from L to R: Mildred, Ira, Mary Lee, Allison. Standing, from L to R: Phillip, Paul, Charlie, Dennis, Bobby, Ina, Alan. Here’s a group photo from 1990. That’s the year I joined CustomXM; only then it was called Custom Printing Company, Inc. At that time, we didn’t have a fax machine, internet, or social […]
