Typefoundry: Documents for the History of Type and Letterforms
Letterpress printing is a type of relief printing, meaning that the inked letters or image is literally pressed into the paper with a printing press, giving it the very distinct and tactile quality. The Typefoundry blog is a valuable resource of information, pictures, and explanations of typecasting. It serves admirably to impart the deep significance of letterforms, trade argot and practices, and the history of the typecaster’s craft.
