New FIT LEAP FOR 2012: Week-at-a-glance Datebook Long-stitch leather bound datebook, printed from reused vintage hand set wood and metal type onto up-cycled obsolete sea charts. Week-at-a-glance datebook, inter-office envelopes stitched in for pockets. Each binding is unique–various leather and thread colors available. Leather is by-product from New York City's fashion industry. Map paper is one-sided–so some pages are white, others are random maps.The paper is re-used, so imperfections abound–but we love them. At Purgatory Pie Press. we have made a limited edition datebook every year since 1980. Leap years repeat every 28 years–so this is also the 2040 datebook! Tell us what color leathers you prefer.

Dikko Faust Letterpress Classes @ SVA An Introduction to Letterpress Letterpress is versatile and adaptable, and mixes easily with other printmaking processes. Through hand typesetting vintage metal and wood typefaces, students will gain a broader understanding of typography. Printing blocks and plates range from completely manual, hand-cut and collaged, to digital photopolymer plates. Accurate color registration is simple and easy. The image can range from hard edge to feathered and painterly, and the relief impression adds a third dimension. Operation and maintenance of several different letterpresses is included. Each session begins with a demonstration followed by studio time to work on individual projects ranging from type-based graphic designs to fine art limited editions. The Letterpress Image This course will concentrate on the use of letterpress for image-making. Metal and wood type will be used for words; photo-polymer plates, linoleum and woodcuts, collage prints, collagraphs and even the letter forms themselves will be used as images. Students will learn to create photo-polymer plates from digital files and print using traditional letterpress equipment. The use of multiple-color printing and pinpoint registration as well as several easy book forms will be covered. ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// LIKE US ON FACEBOOK! //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
