We are Frances and Nicolas McDowall. Married for almost forty
years, we are not only soul partners but the two of us are also
Partners in The Old Stile Press . . . and its total workforce!
At The Old Stile Press, we design, print by hand and publish books in editions limited
to between 100 and 250 copies. These involve texts of importance,
whether new or reprinted, together with suites of wood engravings,
woodcuts, linocuts and other relief blocks made by the artist-printmakers
with whom we collaborate.
