Pickin' and Printin'

Hatch Show Print · 2015 · Letterpress · Wood & metal type

A self-promotional shop poster celebrating Hatch's two great loves, pickin' (Nashville's musical heritage) and printin' (the craft itself). A long-necked banjo cuts the page diagonally, balanced by a poster's worth of stars and a celebratory-sized "PICKIN' AND PRINTIN'" in bold wood type, with the shop's own logo anchoring the piece: Hatch Show Print, in Nashville, Tennessee, since 1879. Printed on the shop's traditional Vandercook and Miehle presses, with all the honest registration shifts and ink-coverage variations that make a Hatch print unmistakable.

We don't print nostalgia. We print the way we've always printed.Hatch Show Print
