“Typeface” documentary about Letterpress and the Hamilton Type Museum

Hello everybody!

I’m new here. I just thought you might be interested in a new documentary about wood type and letterpress and “the convergence of modern design and traditional technique” all framed by the story of the Hamilton Type Museum.

The filmed is called, “Typeface” and it’s being screened around the country and also taking requests for more screenings.

Here’s a link to the website:

and the trailer:

TCM’s movie blog said, “Typeface makes wood type and letterpress artistry look cool, even sexy…”

Well I thought it was always pretty cool, but you get the point.

Hope you find it interesting!
