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.

I met them through the Dumbo Arts Center years ago. They love working with
artists and are very eager to please and give really good deals for returning
customers. They have done good quality speciality invites for my shows and
booklets and pamphlets, in runs of 500 to 5,000, for rates that beat most
online digital printers’ estimates.

Very happy with the product. It was our first time with the Riso so we were
open and excited to embrace its personality. Jesse kindly coached us
through the best practices and even sent a progress report with video.
Timely, affordable, and professional. Great option for the hi-quality/relatively
low edition (we did 300)/manageable price mix.

This is the cheapest xerox in New York. Its 5.5 cents for double sided 8.5”x11”
and 8.5 cents for a tabloid size. I think they usually print just brochures and
pamphlets for hospitals, so they are definitely not “fine arts” printer or a place
to drop off a job with, but if you are looking just to make a small zine or
book by yourself on a standard xerox, the machines are great and it’s
super, super cheap.

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.

Riso stencil printing, primarily working with artists and design groups, with
reasonably good turnaround, depending on the complexity of the project.

We used Duncan’s RISO to print issues 3 and 5 of Kingsboro. It is a really

professional, and also awesome company!
