Jon Beacham is an artist (and former book dealer) who used to be based in
Beacon NY, but is now in Brooklyn, where he operates a letterpress out of
his Williamsburg studio. I’ve used him to do a couple projects and they’ve all
turned out well. Jon has a good aesthetic and has offered great advice on
how to reduce the price of projects without sacrificing quality.

Vandercook, C&P and Miehle Verticle letterpress printing done very

It’s a good printer for art objects (won’t collaborate with any other type of initiators). Very cheap even for Berlin, but you will have to physically participate in the
production. Contact: Matthias Mrowka (speaks English).

My friend Brad is a silkscreen / Letterpress / Fine Art printer in Brooklyn and

The one and only letterpress printer in central Stockholm, maybe in all of
Stockholm, run by one person, the amazing Thomas Asplund. You can trust
Thomas as he will tell you if something does or doesn’t work. We print more or
less every ‘smaller’ thing we do here and can’t recommend him enough!

Really excellent quality letterpress. Not a ton of communication, but good
good prices (for NYC) and one week turnaround on small-run friendly business
cards. Their in-house paper stocks are nice.

Letterpress and offset lithography using vegetable-based inks and recycled
materials. Specialize in music and media packaging but will do any kind of
print project—have their own digipak-rival design: “arigato pak” that you can
either have them print on or buy blank. Super nice, relatively fast, super
easy, super quality.

I have gone to Riitta and Alan at Traction for a couple years. They are a letter
press shop and can do small to medium sized runs and are very helpful in
making things work for you. If there is a unique aspect to the project, they
are accommodating as long as it’s with realistic expectations.
