Description

"Every Defect Deserves Respect" This is an A6 Letterpress printed card. Printed on a desktop printing press dating from the 1950s, with lead type individually hand-set. This is the perfect size for framing into an IKEA DALSKARR (or any) 13x8cm frame (frame not included), or could be used as a postcard and sent through the mail. Set in a Vintage 30-point Grotesque Font and printed on Ivory coloured, 160gsm, Acid Free Stock. Size is A6, 105x148mm. The reverse is blank. Supplied in a cellophane envelope. The nature of letterpress, with the design applied using pressure, leaves a slight indent in the card. This is how printing was done before the advent of digital printing, with every item slightly different and containing subtle variations. I only printed 12 of these, and they can never be reproduced exactly again.
