-------- More information about my process: -------
Letterpress is a centuries-old process of pressing letters into paper. It revolutionized publishing, access to information, education and commerce. I print using the same tools and materials as printers 150 years ago, and some of the tools I use date to the 1880's. I have 4 printing presses in my Minneapolis studio, and over 100 fonts of type, ranging in size from tiny (6pt) to huge (6 inches). I also have many ornaments, borders, and other decorative material.
In letterpress printing, each color is printed separately. The more colors in a piece, the more detailed the typesetting and design, the more involved the process.
Everything in my shop was designed and printed by me and is original artwork. I love to design using metal and wood type. Nothing is done digitally, other than some photo editing for the product listings.
I usually try to show a process shot or two so you can see how your print or card evolved in my studio.
Thank you for supporting traditional letterpress printing!
