In our print shop exhibit at the Sacramento History Museum, we like to discuss history while letterpress printing. However, sometimes we like to just highlight the sounds of the printing process.
In this video, Jared letterpress printed an image depicting the first printing press in what would later become the United States, which was Stephen Daye’s wooden common press from 1639. This was printed in rhodamine red rubber base ink using a 4x6 Golding Official #2 tabletop printing press. 70 prints were made during this press run.
These are prints we hand out to visitors when they stop by our print shop and mention they watch our videos. Quite frankly, we hand these out to anyone!
