I couldn’t resist this short but sweet wood type at the Printer’s Fair. @letterpressthings brought some real treasures, and I rarely see 2-line wood type. Just enough room in the car… #woodtypewednesday #letterpress #typography #woodtype #hamiltonwoodtype https://www.instagram.com/p/CWHXZm9vKeo/?utm_medium=tumblr

Gaining confidence with this sweet Samitrim, another treasure from Milwaukee (😘 @susanestellekwas). I needed spacing for newly arrived slant body 3-line wood type. The one miter attachment I have is the wrong angle, but angled furniture from @alphabetishist solved the problem. Delighted to be on the right track: lacking another T, I resorted to a wee catchword. #woodtypewednesday #letterpress #getontherighttrackbaby (at Tacoma, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMQXymmB0am/?igshid=mynebdwzu03h

First task done, moving on to the next. 18 line, hand-inked wood type prayers: that’s how we do it here, with Sister Rosetta Tharpe singing “I Saw the Light.” #woodtypewednesday #votevotevote #letterpress (at Tacoma, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGnNf3ChuO7/?igshid=98f2pqgysnos

In celebration of the 20th anniversary of the Hamilton Wood Type Museum, artist-in-residence @starshapedpress launched Ham at 20. A diverse group of printers created 28 prints to celebrate, and it was a real treat to see these prints at the @hamiltonwoodtype Wayzgoose last month plus hear Jen’s call to action. There are still prints for sale—including my contribution—at woodtype.org that make great gifts! #letterpress #woodtypewednesday #hamiltonnotthemusical #frenchpaperco https://www.instagram.com/p/B5qOUWkBN4d/?igshid=f180r0y3ck1u
