Congratulations to Maria, of LA blogosphere faves Franklin Avenue for recently relaunching her letterpress studio M Press. Like any designer worth his or her salt, I spend any flea market visit trolling for old printing equipment, so seeing this has my jealous meter pinned. Be sure to check out the slideshow of gorgeous photos detailing the letterpress process (like the one I nicked for above).
Wow! I have’nt seen a letterpress since 9th grade graphics arts class. Can you really make money doing that these days?
Like anything else, you can make plenty of money with the right business model.
Very cool stuff, always nice to see an old art form revived in the digital age!
I love love love letterpressed items!
