David Young and Geoffrey Bertran


David Young and Geoffrey Bertran visit Homeprint to look at the letterpress collection and catch up after retirement. David was owner/manager of 'Websters' wonderful art supply and framing shop in Wellington. Davids friend Geoffrey Bertran and he share a passionate interest in old cars and they both own and drove their 1929 Essex cars to a national car rally in Wanganui and shot over to Feilding for the day.
