Artist Scott Teplin has created this superb series of 26 letterpress dream-houses, each designed from the letters of the alphabet: Alphabet City. The prints are $80 each, and the entire set is available in a bound volume for $2000.

  • Ah, hand touched, makes more sense. We do some letterpress stuff and if not for our connection, I could only imagine what the prices would be (for an ed. of only 24). We tend to do a hundred or more to make our money back.

    Keep up the good work and have a nice christmas.

  • Oh letterpress and then hand embellished? Now that's top notch!
    That bound book sounds beautiful, as well.

    I always like to see what artists do with those 26 letters from time to time. Really fun stuff.
  • Thanks for posting this!

    isaacbidwell: That's a fair statement. We had to keep the prices at $80 because of all the work involved. These are hand-made letterpress prints (NOT inkjet copies) - after which each is individually masked and airbrushed in very small editions (the R pictured above has 24 prints in the edition). Same with the book - all hand-bound and only 26 copies exist.
  • 80 bucks? Seems a little steep.
