Who wants a letterpress?

I have a press that I used for dye cutting and embossing in my paper business. It has been in storage for a while because I have dreamed of starting it up again sometime. I just loved operating it. I loved the sound and the process but have to be realistic and accept the fact that it is not going to happen again for me. I have been wondering if there is anyone who actually uses them for art purposes and then I found this group.

I also have 2 offset and a flexographic press to sell. It is hard to give them up but my health isn't good enough to keep up with the business. I had lines of notes, tags, novelty, and gift wrap paper that we sold at all the major wholesale markets. It's a field that I absolutely love and even have dreams of designs to produce. All of the equipment is good, some may need a little rehab. It has been stored in a dry area. It is located near Indianapolis, IN if you are interested. email: b.brookiewhite@mac.com

The Begining of Letterpress

Hi all! I would love to hear from you letterpress artists of the indie world. How did you get started? What do you love about it, etc! Spill your secrets, well, not all of them ;)

Make your own letterpress

Hi everyone - I'm still an appreciator of letterpress and not a producer. However, I just came across this DIY Letterpress on Instructables (which is an incredible site, if you've never heard of it) and think I might try it: http://www.instructables.com/id/ED97Q95F54HJ5HZ/

Check it out!

Finding Operators

I would love to add letterpressed cards to my company's product line. But, I'm having trouble finding a letterpresser to do the work once I have a final design. Any thoughts?
