VLM

Website http://www.vlm.com

VLM (formerly Graphic Reproductions) was set up by Gerard Malone (Senior) in 1967, as a traditional print shop. They have a history of investing in the latest technologies, dating back to 1976, when the company bought the first automated Scanner in Europe.

In 1988 Graphic Reproductions developed a computerised colouring system for the American Comic Book market with assistance from the Industrial Development Authority. This developed into a separate trading company, Graphic Color Works Ltd, in 1990, specifically to service the comic book industry.
