The Beauty of Letterpress


Watch as the artists of Firefly Press in Massachusetts create their beautiful handiwork.

  • I watch that every once in a while. Such craftsmanship.
  • I hope it never ever dies. You cannot replace such quality and beauty in the detail with any modern technology I have come across.
    I once visited a letterpress operating museum in Melbourne and will never forget the experience! The owner has been doing it for something like 60 years and spoke with so much passion for his craft, it made a huge impression on all of us.
  • I worked on their website a few years ago(I'm sure they've changed it by now). They printed my wife's business cards an some other business related documents. Very nice work.
  • gaaaaaaaaaaaahhh...Thank you SOOO much for posting this. I visited a small letter press studio a few weeks ago and I'm in LOVE.
