Letterpress Printing- How times Change

Attached is a link to a video about letterpress printing this process was still widely used when I first entered the trade in the1970s my first job was letterpress printing how times have changed. The video link was supplied by our friends at the BPIF. vimeo.com/35688592

Lee Cooper - Devoted to Denim

We are pleased to have recently printed work for Lee Cooper a famous must have brand when I was growing up so it is good to see them still going strong and expanding with their slogan 'Devoted to Denim devoted to style'. They were founded in London's East End in 1908 by Morris Cooper and their products now sell in over 70 countries around the world. Long may they continue!

Roll Up Banners

We have just produced 6 roll up banners for a client the banners had a lot of ink coverage but the quality of the print remained consistent throughout. If you need roll up banners contact us for more information they can often be produced at short notice.

Visit Sushisamba Heron Tower London

I was invited to the opening night of Sushisamba Restaurant in the City of London last night. What a venue! situated at the top of the Heron Tower it has unrivalled views of London with outside terraces on the 38th floor that you can look in every direction. Last nights event was like a who's who of the fashion, music, TV, film and food industries. The hospitality from Sushisamba was 1st class and they kindly invited their local printer. Seriously though if you have an opportunity visit for that special occasion.

Email Marketing

Just been discussing email marketing has it reached saturation point? I find myself unsubscribing more and more and hitting the delete button. I believe that clients will come full circle and start to invest more of their marketing spend in traditional print which can be stunning and tactile and studied over a relaxing coffee. Of course email marketing, traditional print and social media all have a role to play in building up a companies profile but it will be interesting to see how it all develops.

Recycled Leaflets

Printed a nice selection of leaflets last week for a client who was exhibiting at the Trueman brewery in Brick Lane selling Fair Trade goods. We used a recycled stock called 9 lives offset in a mixture of leaflet and postcard weights.
