I have just returned from the sixth Letterpress Workers international summit, organised and hosted by Officina Novepunti. Located at Leoncavallo, Milan, between the 28th June to 2nd July, the event was attended by international letterpress designers and printers, with many European countries represented and participants from as far afield as Brazil and the United States.
A large selection of printing presses and collection of wood type were assembled to be used by the attendees to create letterpress prints in editions of 50 copies on the topical subject of ‘Resistance’.
