Taking advantage of the summer lull to do a bit of interior decorating! Particularly pleased with our recent acquisition of a slightly pre-loved reproduction of one of William Caslon's early specimen sheets. #letterpress

We're not dead yet! (Our director @ScotsAntiquary is just very bad at handling social media without any interns). The press is moving rooms in Pathfoot and will reopen later this month! #letterpress

Exciting progress in the project our interns have been working on! We're all set up, we've checked for and fixed our typos, and we are ready to get printing! Featuring our very smiley lead printer @ScotsAntiquary

What is that?! One of our interns printed a small piece as a keepsake to accompany a personal Christmas gift of concert tickets at the Laeiszhalle (Elbphilharmonie) in Hamburg. Classical music meets #letterpress printing - clearly, we are ready for Christmas!

The Pathfoot Press interns had a blast yesterday, learning the fundamentals of book binding under the supervision of the wonderful Marion Archibald from The Old Printing Works. Needless to say we are addicted. And look how shiny! Many thanks, @ScotsAntiquary, for organising

A few days ago, our printern Kat accidentally stumbled into the workshop of Glasgow Press while out and about - but what a glorious discovery! It's always a pleasure to visit other #letterpress workshops in Scotland, especially when they have a Columbian as beautiful as this one!
