Today Hibiscus celebrated the 25th Anniversary of another one of our employees. Sean Pithie works in the pre-press, studio department at Hibiscus and he is a veteran silkscreen film-planner and platemaker. Sean started at Hibiscus when we used to use a SprayMount booth and bromide paper for pasting-up artwork and he fondly remembers sticky carpets, 10A scalpel blades, Rotoring Pens, Letraset and many sweaty summer hours in the darkroom with an Agfa Repromaster Camera and rank-smelling chemical processor.
Aaaaahhhh. Those were the days.
Hibiscus has many employees who are long-standing experts in their field and Sean is THE FIFTH Hibiscus employee in the last couple of years to have reached the 25 year milestone at Hibiscus.
Well done, Sean.
