Old World Printing, Made New!

Letterpress studio in Beijing, China. At Paper Pounder Press, we venerate the traditions of the great printers that came before us. Looking to the past we see the monumental importance of the printed word and its shaping of cultures. We infuse modern design with techniques that have existed for half a millennium to produce stylish, tactile prints. Focusing on personalized business cards, stationery, programs, and wedding invitations, we hope to reintroduce Letterpress printing to the country that invented movable type. Stop by and check us out.

See? Lots of fun. Thanks to Beau Kaelin for the video and to Amtrac for the song "City Underground" on the In Transit album.
