Ladies of Letterpress

The U.S. edition of Ladies of Letterpress is now available for sale!  This is exciting news for one of our artists, printmaker Helen Ingham whose work is featured in the book. Helen is understandably delighted with the endorsement:

"My whole letterpress journey has been a real test of determination and single mindedness, often working long hours alone, in difficult circumstances. So it is a great privilege to be featured in this wonderful book, especially as I am only one of two printers from Europe to be included. The US writers selected the pieces for inclusion and I delivered them to be photographed by the UK publisher, Ivy Press in Lewes. Bizarrely they immediately recognised ‘Up over The Downs’ (the glider print), which had been for sale at an art dealers a few doors away!"

 

The book is gorgeous, and the publishers couldn’t be more proud of it. To celebrate the book’s publication, Princeton Architectural Press is giving the letterpress community a discount on the book: 35% off plus free shipping in the US with promo code LETTER. Order your copy here
