September 26th is World Maritime Day! This day reflects the gratitude of those in the maritime industry and the benefits it brings to the world through global trade. While we don’t have many maritime cuts in our print shop, fear naut! Howard navigated our collections to find a very detailed photo engraving to letterpress print for today. This cut was made in the early 2000s to promote a special exhibit that was in conjunction with the Folsom History Museum. The print depicts a 19th century sailor with a ship a port in the background. This was printed using black rubber base ink using our Washington hand press. • • • #WorldMaritimeDay #maritime #nautical #art #powerofthepress #SacHistoryMuseum #sacramento #museum #history #letterpress #printingpress #asmr #printing #printmaking #oldsac #oldsacramento
