David Lanning
David has been at bookbinding suppliers J. Hewit & Sons Ltd. since 1987.
He came to Hewits by way of an agricultural and farming background
with an expertise in growing bananas and avocados. But that, as they
say, is another story… He
started at Hewits in the position of London Sales Manager and was
appointed a Director of the company with overall responsibility for
Sales and Marketing in 1991. David is passionate about the craft
and trade of bookbinding and although he has never wielded a bone
folder or paring knife in anger, he considers himself quite a competent
armchair bookbinder!
