Vintage Christmas Card Letterpress Printing

Join letterpress enthusiast Simon Trewin via zoom in his Brixton studio and explore his collection of historic vintage printing presses, wooden type and metal illustration blocks.

Watch him as he prints a selection of festive Christmas items from cards to tags to decorations. 

Collect your own Garage Press festive goody bag the following week from Bell House.

The Garage Press was founded in 2018 by Literary Agent Simon Trewin in South London and they were named one of the top 5 Letterpress studios in Europe by the People In Print collective in 2020. They have worked with the likes of the National Archive at Kew, the German magazine Analog Sea, the Irish literary festival Murder One as well as having pieces exhibited in Poland at LemPress 2020 and, in 2019, at Discerning Eye in the Mall Galleries.
