Box of 6 Letterpress Cards, hand printed using traditional craft techniques. An exquisite way to send a note, the old fashioned way.
Mabel & Co greetings cards are typeset in Futura, a typeface designed between 1924 & 1927 by German Designer Paul Renner. Strongly reflecting the Bauhaus influence of the time, it nevertheless remains - over 90 years later - widely used for print and digital design.
Cards are blank on the inside and have some typographical information on the reverse.
The cards and boxes are hand letterpress printed on a treadle powered press, built around 1860, and following its restoration, still going strong some 160 years later.

100% recycled letterpress card.
Folded A7 size.
British made FSC envelope.
