LETTERPRESSED INSPIRATIONS











I am honing my letterpressing chops, which is pretty easy to do, thanks to LaLa Press. Located on the edge of Atwater Village/Los Feliz, Mable Lee's modest print shop is home to all sorts of amazing equipment and machinery. Did I mention that all of the presses are solar powered!? What a beautiful blend of anachronistic and contemporary technologies...

Can't wait to see what you have planned! I was inspired by your previous post on LaLa Press to sign up for some classes in SF. Thanks for the updates and inspiration!

Ah man, I'd love to have one of those in Atlanta. I used to run a letterpress in high school. Would like to re-learn what i knew.

The SCAD/Atlanta Branch has a modest facility of letterpress beds and related equipment. Maybe register for a summer class to get your hands dirty?
