Their work is inked and pressed against paper with relief printing, which is different from offset printing. For the designers who are keeping this old art alive, they take us back in time to a completely different era with their work. Here are some of the best letterpress design studios from

Hand-printed letterpress poster. All RNR Showprint posters are printed with a combination of historic wood and lead type fonts and custom blocks on vintage proofing presses. We only use high-quality commercial printing papers. This poster is a part of the acclaimed ongoing series, The Smithville Papers, consisting of typographic and printing experiments created in response to the recordings collected in Harry Smith’s storied Anthology of American Folk Music. Released in 1952, the Anthology compiled obscure works from the earliest years of electronically recorded music chronicling the hopes, ambitions and fears of rural communities. These sounds percolate through our studio, and resonate with the traditions and vocabulary of the historic letterpress prints which inspire our work. The seventh print explores the 1928 recording of The Waggoner's Lad by the influential Kentucky country singer, Buell Kazee. This print measures 14.5”w x 23”h, and is printed in black and gray on Cougar Natural stock. Because each piece is hand printed, some variation will occur. Prints are carefully shipped unframed rolled in a shipping tube. __________________________________________________________ R-N-R Showprint is a collaborative letterpress and graphic design studio formed in 2012 in Norfolk, Virginia.
