Stylish Letterpress, Meet Green

-

Lately my obsession for letterpress cards has turned into an obsession with letterpress posters. Fortunately for me, Keep Calm Ltd. and its founders, Lucas & Hayley have expanded their business. You may have heard of them: they made quite a splash last year with their reprint of the popular British poster "Keep Calm and Carry On" from the ’40s, which are printed on 100% recycled off-white art paper. 

They are working with several talented graphic designers, illustrators and artists to create high quality prints on recycled paper – and all under $100.  This limited-edition letterpress poster by artist Douglas Wilson offers a stylish reminder to Reduce, Reuse and Recycle.  Each poster is hand letterpressed with dark brown ink on "Gumdrop Green" 100lb French paper. The paper, the ink and the gold border are all made from recycled materials!
