We have been highlighting a variety of printing materials connected to our new exhibit at the Sacramento History Museum called “Sacramento In A Can,” all about Sacramento’s canning history! In this video, Jared letterpress printed an electrotype of a magazine page of a California Almond Growers Exchange and Blue Diamond ad discussing a recipe for almond chicken casserole. This ad was prepared by Chapin-Damm Advertising and was printed in McCall’s magazine in 1955. This electrotype is on loan to us from Maryellen, who helped contribute research and materials for the exhibit. This was printed with Pantone Warm Red oil base ink using our Washington hand press. • • • #newexhibit #almond #almonds #bluediamond #art #powerofthepress #SacHistoryMuseum #sacramento #museum #history #letterpress #printingpress #asmr #printing #oldsacramento #printmaking
