This summer a group of SITES staffers traveled to Nashville to visit Hatch Show Print, a shop some 130 years old, specializing in old fashioned letterpress printing. We had a unique opportunity to observe work in progress, talk with artists, and see a bit of history being made.
Oh, and if you're wondering, "American Letterpress: The Art of Hatch Show Print" will be opening at a museum near you in the fall of 2008!
Here, Adrienne Miller and Dixie Johnson, two interns working at Hatch Show Print, put together type for a new poster.
