Synopsis

At last, a contemporary how-to reference on letterpress, a traditional craft that's experiencing a huge resurgence! Not only does Letterpress Now explain how to find and use a variety of presses, it also covers an amazing range of techniques, all with step-by-step photos, including setting metal and wood type, lino/relief block prints, photopolymer plates, die-cuts and more. About twenty eye-catching projects, from cards and calendars to masks, posters and business cards, plus features on over a dozen letterpress artists and community print shops, make this guide indispensable.
