Alfra was started in 1981 to provide quality artwork and prepress services primarily to the printing industry. Since that time, the company has taken advantage of changing technology and now offers more products and services. The only thing that has remained constant over the years is the quality of our service that we provide to all our clients.
The Porcupine's Quill was incorporated in 1974, originally as the production arm of Dave Godfrey's Press Porcépic. PQL published its first title in 1975, Brian Johnson's first and only book of poems, Marzipan Lies. Brian Johnson is currently the film critic for Maclean's and claims to have met Mick Jagger of the Rolling Stones, twice! Many of the early titles were slim volumes written by poets Tim Inkster had met as a student at the University of Toronto - amongst them Ed Carson who until recently was President of Penguin Canada, and Brian Henderson who is currently the publisher at Wilfrid Laurier University Press.
