American Letterpress: The Art of Hatch Show Print

Great video here from the Smithsonian traveling exhibition American Letterpress: The Art of Hatch Show Print, this video shows you the art of letterpress printing as practiced by a 125-year-old Nashville, TN, print shop. Learn why only a handful of letterpress shops still exist in American and why this one is so influential in the music and entertainment industry. A great look at the craft and well worth 8 minutes of your time. Now I want to go to Nashville!
