Hey, folks! Celebrate the day that the Earth stops plunging headlong toward the giant thermonuclear fireball at the center of the solar system! Other holidays are fraught with layered meaning and sooo much history, perihelion is the solstice celebration that everyone can get behind. Share the joy with all races, colors and creeds with a set of six simple yet effective A2 foldover cards. Printed in black using a 1951 vintage Vandercook No 4 Proofing Press, on Colorplan Natural 100# paper, the text is hand-set using an antique metal cut of Cheltenham that is far superior to the modern digital versions. (I have no definite opinion about this.) Envelopes included, color may vary.

WHAT I LEARNED IN COLLEGE// I was 31 when I started my undergrad degree at a state school with a decent print program and a lot of equipment I wanted to use. I had to take a lot of required courses, including an intro to 2D design that mostly frustrated me because I didn’t understand what the teacher was attempting to demonstrate and because it was some of what I wanted to learn in college. The basics. I dreaded that class. But I learned a few things: 1)composition and design elements are easier to understand once you start teaching them 2)collage collage collage and 3)I have everything I need to start making art. You do too. Fancy equipment is nice and helpful and experimentation is key. But don’t let that stop you from working with what you have. This is probably my all time best selling postcard , printed in my first days as an intern at @sanfranciscocenterforthebook . Thanks for letting me reminisce—it reminds me how far I’ve come. 🛠🛠🛠 #youbhaveallthetools #keepwriting #keepwringpostcards #handsettype #moveabletype #letterpress #printer #2ddesign https://www.instagram.com/p/CUTamA5Jfvr/?utm_medium=tumblr
