Letter press is a process that I have never experimented with before, it will be added to the publication as it is a valued
print technique that can have rewarding results. To begin letterpress the letters were carefully selected and then placed
backwards in order for it to be printed in the correct way. The letters are places inside a frame and then built around with
furniture locking them into place.
The type used for the front cover is: top: Profil 20D/ 36D middle: 72pt Chisel bottom: 42pt Gill Bold The type used for edit/ explore and discover is: 48pt Chinsel
Chinsel type was used for edit/ discover and explore because it is a clear type however it is still decorative.

Problem
The biggest problem with printing white on dark blue is the small type is that it is difficult to read on many of the prints, in-between each print I did I cleaned the letters and lightly inked however no matter how many prints I did the letters and especially the number 16. If I have enough time left I am either going to change the type or print the same design with white stock and blue ink to see if the type will become any clear to read.
