Something older from this summer: when I first got my bigger Line-O-Scribe set up after I moved into my current place, this was the first thing I printed. 

All the copywriters at the agency are remote and they had come in for a workshop session or team bonding or something like that!!! and I made a little card for everyone for their WFH setup. 

Because I love giving people souvenirs.

I've got a restoration project! This is probably a Line-O-Scribe show card writer. However it has no brand name on it that I've found yet. I'm going to take the whole thing apart and clean/de-rust and grease it up when I find some free time. ...possibly going to paint it a real snazzy color. 😎

The IBRC recently had this Line-O-Scribe model1422 donated to the shop. That first image is from a catalog from the 50′s, so I’m guessing this press is from around that time (can a person use the serial # for this brand of press and actually find the date it was made?). I spent the weekend cleaning the shit out of it, and finally got to pull a quick proof on it! It’s such a cool little press, and I’m interested to see how the original rollers work when I lock something up that is larger. 

I bought that ridiculous cigarette advertisement plate a while back, and I love it even though I don’t smoke.
