Alyson Kuhn from Felt & Wire just published a story about the NSS Matchbook Journals that Legion helped produce in collaboration with Flywheel Press and 15 other letterpress shops and designers.
The Beauty of Engraving
Have to hand it to Neenah Paper for knocking it out of the park on this one. They created this site that educates on the history of engraving, features gorgeous engraved work, and has a killer video showing the process. Worth exploring.
Many of the projects in their gallery were done on Lettra.
Check out the three dozen other papers we recommend for engraving (or other intaglio processes.)
Instagram Loves Dolce Press
