Somebody help a guy out. Tom Huck made a deal with a guy that if he built him a press, the guy could have one of every print that was run on it. I want to do a deal like that, anyone interested?

The prints shall be labelled PPPP for Printing Press Provider’s Proof.

What a great idea. I’d make a deal like that in instant (on the press-requiring side, I mean). I bet it would make a good Kickstarter incentive for a particularly generous supporter, too…

Copenhagen-based designer Ishac Bertran built this ingenious miniature  letterpress, using only leftover material from his previous projects.  Three blocks of wood, a couple of brass rods and a some parts from an  old radio cassette player ultimately determined the shape of the device.  Still Ishac notes that his little letterpress falls short in terms of  accuracy: “I must say this is not the most precise letterpress ever.”
