New Toy! pt.2

As you know a few months ago I bought a box of mixed letterpress type from an antiques fair. Well, now I have a lovely Adana 8x5 printing press to go with it, thanks to ebay and a very nice man in Wales. I have already had my first printing job adding my dad’s company logo to their Christmas cards, yippee!

New Toy!

Yesterday I went to an antique fair and while there I found a box full of movable metal type! I have all ways loved using traditional methods of printing and my interest grew for movable type when I saw Stephen Fry's documentary on the Gutenberg Press. The box is in a mess with type every where but I'm gunna have fun sorting it all out.
