Say 'Hello' to Heartfish Press

Please welcome the newest member to the letterpress community: Heartfish Press, based out of Brooklyn, NY. They just opened their doors last month.  Owned and operated by graphic designer, Hijiri K Shepherd, Heartfish offers a collection of letterpress prints and cards as well as custom design services.

One of their first designs is called HELLO.  It measures 8 x 10 inches, letterpressed by hand using vintage wood type blocks on 110lb, 100% cotton Lettra Pearl White paper with soy-based ink – means it’s very eco-friendly!

Soy-based inks are not necessarily eco-friendly (They are often more than 80% petrol-based and less than 20% soy). Soy based ink is more of just a gimmick to promote the soybean industry. I would check your facts on that one.

Their work looks great! Best of luck with your business!
