Sometimes I get annoyed at things labeled 'handmade' that really aren't. Computer printed cards and "limited edition prints" are my personal pet peaves. But it seems that for many mediums, there's simply a lack of understanding. How can you really grasp difference between a screenprinted card, a letterpressed card, and a digitally printed card, or a handbound book versus a commercially bound one, if you don't even have a vague understanding of the mechanical processes involved?
So it was really refreshing to see some shots from the
Ink & Spindle studio showing their printing process. (Their site has a few images;
their flickr has many more)
Fantastic work, a studio to die for, and ethical working methods. I think I'm in love.
