Had an introduction into letterpress printing last week. Found it very interesting, especially as it took me as an individual around 2 hours to process a sentence, whereas around a century ago people were publishing newspapers daily using this method. Thank god for the keyboard I guess!
However the results from this method gives a very warm, unique and personal feeling. There was something about the quality of print which you cannot get from ordinary printers. A sense of effort, and achievement perhaps?
Here are some of the photo's I took using my phone.
