October 6th is World Architecture Day! Sacramento is well-known for its architecture with our city’s downtown and midtown areas home to many historic districts containing a variety of architectural styles from the 1850s through the 1940s. It goes without saying that we post a lot of videos using our Washington hand press, which was made in 1852. However, much of the prints are quite small compared to what the press can handle. For today, Jared letterpress printed a large photo engraving, which was made in 1990 for an event in partnership with Sacramento Heritage Inc., a local nonprofit established to promote preservation of Sacramento’s historic properties. The Hubbard-Upson House, also known as “The Castle,” in the Alkali Flat neighborhood in Downtown Sacramento was built 1856. While it originally was a family home, the building stands today as the location for quite a few law offices. This was printed with orange oil base ink using our Washington hand press. #worldarchitectured...
