letterpress things

this weekend, we spent 9 hours driving to and from chicopee, ma to visit john barrett's letterpress things. it was our 4th trip back and we picked up lots of amazing stuff: teeny-tiny lead type, a small cabinet, composing stone, eyelet press, chase, spacers and piles of vintage paper. the best part of the trip is spending the entire day with john - he's an old school printer with lots of knowledge and plenty of good stories.
