So I have my schedule somewhat figured out, and one class I’m taking is a letterpress class at Kallemeyn Press in Brooklyn. Not my teacher, but Earl Kallemeyn, who owns the shop was talking about the history of letterpress and how skilled Japanese pressmen were often tattoo artists—that the history of tattooing is rooted in letterpress. He shared this awesome print the shop did of artwork by Jamie Ruth. After class was over I asked him, and he gave me a print!
