The only local job printer in these parts does her job work on offset presses. Does fancier office stationary stuff. I don't know if she even has a litho machine. I know what a litho plate looks like from 50 paces but can't say as I've ever seen any at the 2 recycling places I get some of my raw material from. Thanks for the idea Roland.
