Today’s Historical Tweet is our last for a few weeks.

How ironic (or is it?) that it’s from our favorite Gutenberg, Johannes (screw you, Steve), inventor of the first printing press… we’re taking a few weeks off to hit the books and discover more Historical Tweets.  We’ll keep you abreast of our mighty travels to libraries around the world a la Indiana Jones, but until then, enjoy this gem:
