Dan Morris runs The Arm Letterpress in Brooklyn, NY and is a co-owner of The Dale Guild Type Foundry, one of the last producers of true metal foundry type.
We spent some time during the third term coming up with a group poster concept to display the collection of our typefaces. We settled on the idea of a classified ad page. For this we each created some variation of 2 x 4 ad with content of our choice.
In the few weeks we had remaining, we each put together an individual specimen for our own typefaces. About a week prior to this workshop we sent out our files to Boxcar Press to get polymer plates made. The following weekend Dan taught us about mixing pantone colors, getting our plates lined up just right, and how to use the presses. We each printed 40 2-color type specimens, as well as taking turns printing our group poster.
