We are sorry to report the death, at the age of 93, of Maurits Enschedé of the famous Dutch printing company which shares his name. Maurits joined the Wynkyn de Worde society in 1966. As well as being a valued member, he will be remembered by many for his witty 1995 talk on banknote printing. The text of that talk can be read here.
