Letterpress still exists all over the world, folks, not just in a museum! While traveling in Central Europe, Jared visited letterpress_salzburg in Salzburg, Austria. Annette Rollny and Bernhard Müller have a design agency in Salzburg for graphic design and photo design. They have also been building up a letterpress printing business since 2017 collecting and restoring old wooden typefaces and lead type and want to preserve this historic craft for posterity. In workshops and demonstrations, they show young people, students, and anyone else who is interested the craft of letterpress printing. They own and work with a Liberty press from around 1860 from New York and a Phoenix press from Leipzig, Germany, from around 1870. They also work with two Boston platen presses and a proof press. If you are in Austria, you should check them out, especially their wonderful work in the local community and exhibitions. If you love letterpress printing, give them a follow! Don’t worry folks, of cours...
