We often get involved in some beautiful print work at Johnsons. Beautiful photography, beautiful design and layout, resulting in some beautifully finished print. But this journal for Olsen Animal Trust not only has all the above, but it also illustrates and describes a truly beautiful cause.
- Printed Litho on Heidelberg XL
- Uncoated paper stock
- Stitched and bound with 300gsm cover and 140gsm printed pages
- Finished by hand at Johnsons of Nantwich
- Pre-press, workflow and pagination by Johnsons pre-press studio
The journal sets out the journey so far. From founder Sue Olsen’s experience of witnessing a menagerie of tethered animals in 2012 through to the accomplished work that has been done by projects supported by the now established Olsen Animal Trust’s team.
It chronicles the work of the Born Free Foundation (pictured below), and the many organisations doing incredible work around the world. Examples are Tikki Hywood Foundation who specialise in helping lesser known species such as the pangolin, the Elephant Orphanage Project in Zambia whose aim is to rescue, rehabilitate and release orphaned elephants back into the wild and Chipmebele a wildlife rescue and educational trust (pictured above).
Creating the highest quality print…
It’s always a pleasure to be involved with excellent projects such as this. We work with photographers and designers on a daily basis, this gives us an advantage when producing photography based projects such as this. Credit in this case to designer Jocelyn Lawman who we’re sure, along with the contributing photographers, will be as pleased as we are with the resulting journal.
If you have a similar project on the go and you would like to discuss in more detail, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with the team here at Johnsons Printers.

Related Information
Johnsons were delighted to be asked to print an impressive new book by author Dai Rees. Printed in two versions as a hard back and soft cover, "Teulu Fferam" is a wonderful book charting local history of the Roberts family.
We compared it to a book from our archives, printed by Johnsons on the same premises 136 years earlier!
"History of Nantwich" was printed in 1883 at the very same Oat Market premises, and whilst there are a few differences the end result is a hard bound book that will last the tests of time.
The most obvious difference is the paper used in Dai Rees' book. A textured paper stock called Accent Antique Alabaster by GF Smith was used for the inner pages, giving the latter a feel of quality and luxury. Unsurprisingly, this paper wasn't available in 1883, with George Frederick Smith not founding GF Smith until 2 years later!
Also the methods of printing have changed quite considerably since 1883. Mr Rees' book was printed using the latest commercial digital printing press technology. However, the end result wasn't a million miles apart.
Johnsons was founded in 1827 by Thomas Johnson and the head office remains situated in the same Oat Market address in Nantwich. One of the oldest printing companies in the UK, Johnsons also have printworks in Crewe, Cheshire and supply print across the UK and Europe, as well as supplying local businesses.
Johnsons remain at the forefront of print technology, employing 35 experienced staff alongside some of the industry's most advanced printing presses and workflow software. We look forward to printing more books like these in the future.

EDF Energy - Dorenell Windfarm
This beautifully constructed Visitor Centre Displays was created for the Dorenell Windfarm Visitor Centre on the Glenfiddich Estate.
Visitor Centre Display Graphics
A combined project with designer David Vickers of DesignCoUK, has produced this stunning permanent display. The 12 visitor centre display graphics were printed on our Anapurna flatbed. This was supported by our AGFA workflow to ensure accurate colour and high quality reproduction of David's artwork.Interactive Displays
This permanent display also includes some excellent tactile touches and interactive displays. One of the graphics includes a 25 flip-over display, where visitors can reveal instant answers by simply flipping the relevant graphic. The six piece block puzzle was created by printing direct to 36 wooden panels, each slotting into one another to form cubes. The panels were varnished after being printed and form a very durable block puzzle. A design from David Vickers that needed a bit of thinking about!Wooden Graphic Display frames
The 12 graphics themselves are set within timber frames and constructed on site. It gives a truly stunning presentation of facts and figures about the local eco-system and windfarm. And fitting well within the visitor centre itself.
The visitor centre displays took a relatively short time to produce with much of the work being in design and conception. The team always enjoy coming up with the solutions to allow ideas to work safely and practically. Its great to see the results after the installation is complete.
