Are you or your friend a typophile? Do you love to stare at the alphabet all day long? Do you find the slight imperfections of the letterpress printing process truly satisfying? With these fun colored alphabet notecards, you can surprise three friends with tangible typography and say "Hi" at the same time.
Please note that you will not find perfection here. These cards were printed using vintage moveable type. The type has been dinged and chipped through the course of time, and those slight imperfections show in the prints. If that's your cup of tea, then these cards are for you. =)
This is a set of 3 letterpress notecards.
I currently have more in stock than may be listed. Card are also available individually or you can order a custom quantity of any of the three colors. Please contact me if you'd like to place a custom order.
More photos coming soon.

STOCK // Printed on Flourescent White Crane Lettra 110lb. 100% cotton card stock. Comes with white envelope.

PROCESS // Letterpress is a tedious and labor intensive process that utilizes hand mixed PMS inks and involves hand feeding each sheet, one at a time. Our paper (or preferred 100% cotton stock) is cut, scored and folded by hand, in-house. Slight variations in color, registration and impression may occur. Because of the nature of this process, no two prints will be exactly alike. **That's the beauty of letterpress.
SHIPPING // Unless otherwise requested, this item will ship via USPS first class services.
