With the help and expertise of our friends at Colin Cross printers, we’ve just completed the first run of our new business cards. We asked them to fire up their old Heidelberg press, bringing it out of a state of semi-retirement to produce our lovely new letter-pressed business cards.

It’s years since we’ve run a Letterpress job, but we felt the craft and attention to detail inherent to this printing method was something we wanted to communicate about ourselves. We spent a really interesting morning in the press shop with our skilled and patient printers to achieve a beautiful and worthwhile finish.
Each card is letter-pressed in black onto a pre-printed, 380mic uncoated stock. The sheets were then painstakingly duplexed to avoid show through.
