Letterpress print

The text is set letter by letter with printing types of lead, a few lines at a time. When the page is set, the text is clamped and moved to the printing press. There it is adjusted so that it ends up right on the paper.

Adjustments before printing.

Printing. Color is added and the paper is fastened.

Placing the text rightly in the printing press so that it ends up on the right place on the paper is not entirely easy. Here with artist and printmaker Olof Sandahl.
