The Greenwich Letterpress model is to produce the highest quality letterpress on a larger scale than a hobby shop printer like " mr yawn ." This way GLP serves a larger audience and provide graphics not available in hot metal. Their clients and the press seem to like the model.
I had some work done by these folks and they did an amazing job. A very high level of craftsmanship and pride must have gone into the work. Cool for me to see where the work was done. Big yawn to someone who spends their time hating on youtube.
wow, i'm just getting into letterpress and am astounded by it. i love it already. what was the plate you showed at the beginning? beautiful print indeed.
Oh man, that is just fantastic! I haven't seen a platern, (windmill), being used for printing in years. Here in South Africa as well as the rest of the world, (I guess), they are still used for foiling, embossing & die cutting. Well done on keeping a piece of history alive.
As of June 1, 2007 all of Greenwich Letterpress presses, along with their sister company Wheal-Grace, are powered by 100% wind energy. No carbon footprint.
We produce the most environmentally friendly printing in the country.
Greenwich Letterpress just added a third Heidelberg Windmill letterpress. The company was named as the # 1 new entry in their category in the 2007 Zagat NYC Shopping Guide.
Why didn´t take off the rollers at press 1 by an embossment job ?? Greetings from Germany :-)

just another platepress printer. big yawn.
remember kids, if a "letterpress" printer isn't using hot metal types, and just printing from plates, they aren't truly letterpress.

Wait until one of those operators loses an arm and makes a claim...
That'll ruin their annual profits

Wow that is a bad vibe sir.
The plant is OSHA approved and if you looked you will see all guards are on the presses and we have a 100% safety record. Agenda Scott ???
