May 6th is National Milk Day! This day encourages individuals to sit back and enjoy their favorite beverage. For today, Howard letterpress printed a photo engraving of a newspaper milk carton advertisement, likely from the 1960s. The print depicts a milk carton for the Mell-O Milk Company, which was headquartered in Anniston, Alabama. This photo engraving is from the Brett from Pennsylvania Collection, a collection of cuts that were gifted to us 6 months ago from one of our followers. This was printed with black rubber base ink using our Washington hand press, which was made in 1852. #SacHistoryMuseum #NationalBeverageDay #beverage #milk #sacramento #museum #History #letterpress #printingpress #asmr #printing
