And speaking of classes… list yours!

If you teach letterpress or know of local LP classes, please feel free to send the info my way. I’ll include class info in a special resources page on ILL since there seems to be a growing interest and I don’t know what’s happening beyond the SF Bay Area.

Thanks!

Reader Question: Classes around Raleigh, NC?

Another ILL reader, Susana, is looking for letterpress classes in or around Raleigh, NC this spring. Do you have any local resources for her?

Thanks, everyone!

Reader Question: Classes in Orange County?

Hey Letterpress Peeps,

ILL reader, Lauren, is looking for letterpress classes in or near Orange County (CA) besides Otis. She can go as far as LA County. Do you have any recommendations for her?

You’re welcome to post a comment below or email me via the submission/contact form.

A Peek Into Letterpress Operations

From the fabulous Cake + Pie blog (really, you must visit) I discovered Adventures in Letterpress blog. For anyone considering getting into letterpress as a business — or for those just interested in letterpress or small business — this is a fascinating read. It’s a brand new blog with no many posts yet. I’m really looking forward to watching her blog and business grow.

We Interrupt The Holiday PoTD …

… to bring you another web movie of a letterpress in action.

This video is courtesy of the fine folks at The Defiance Project. Check it out at: http://thedefianceproject.com/letterpress.html

(You know, I was going to title this “hot letterpress action” but decided against it. These videos are really like printers’ porn, aren’t they?)
