Vandercook
This year marks the 100th anniversary of the Vandercook letterpress! Shirley Edwards, a San Francisco-based designer (and Logos Graphics cohort), has started a blog to document a special paper Vandercook model which she designed: http://vandercook100.blogspot.com.
Be sure to watch the blog for more information about its final release! Members of the Pacific Center for the Book Arts will receive a free Vandercook model template sheet with instructions in the next Ampersand publication due this fall. If you’re unfamiliar with the Vandercook, you can stop by the San Francisco Center for the Book and see their range of Vandercook presses and sign up for classes too.
