Letterpressin'

Got to play with SNAP's letterpress the other day. I had ordered some woodblock type off of ebay and the next thing I knew, I was inking up rollers and playing with leading. Joy!

The thing I find queer about letterpress is the actual text block is so filled with texture and colour and variation and metal and wood and everything else and the print comes out so clean and blank. I'll post pics of the print when it's done.
