Outcome - A3 letterpress poster and boxset of posters

Commentary - During the letterpress session I became aware of many limitations of letterpress, but also the positive benefits of the results. My largest typeface was missing a letter, so the resulting posters have an O that is often printed bolder than the other
letters. The resulting print and its imperfections has a warm feeling as the letters have picked out the grain of the paper.

Following a failure in integrity in the construction of my first box I went to see my friend Erica Read who knows about art restoration and archival. She taught me how to make a good solid box. The results can be seen from the boxset.
