The Dying Art of Letter Press
Normally the name "The Guild Review," if it means much of anything at all, is a loose reference to academia, the last major surviving guild system (which is an entirely different post), but today I though I would share a bit about a particular craft which has been brought to my attention: letter press.
Special thanks to Kate Wyman for sharing this video.

This is fantastic. I feel like this guy sometimes with drafting and rendering by hand. Only thing is his technology is a lot more complicated and losing it will be harder to replicate.. Great looking stuff, post a link to his business if you can find it.
It would seem that Firefly Press does not have a website; the best I could find was this page, which includes the mailing address and email: http://elsa.photo.net/firefly.html
Aaron, don't you think it would be a pity if Firefly Press did have a website?
