At Princetown Press, we use traditional letterpress printing techniques, working exclusively with wood and metal type. We use hand-powered printing presses, and recycled papers to create printed ephemera that inspire and delight. Where possible, we use British-made tools, and materials.
With combined degrees in Environmental Science, and Sustainable Product and Furniture Design, makers Emma Hogbin and Jon Palmer bring a unique perspective to the endangered Heritage Craft of letterpress.
In the print studio, we do things the hard way. Nothing is efficient, nothing is mechanised, and nothing is speedy.
We use heritage craft techniques, hand-powered printing presses, and recycled papers to create printed ephemera that inspires and delights. Where possible, we use British-made materials, and tools.
We produce stationery, chapbooks, and posters within information about Dartmoor. Sometimes we also make silly things.
