to Old School Stationers, located in Portland, Oregon. We are a small letterpress studio specializing in the production of handmade cards and wall prints.

True to our name, we prefer the organic beauty of hand-drawn lines to those created with a mouse and keyboard. Our cards and prints are made one at a time using pencil, paper, ink and 900 pounds of cast iron.

Each image is hand-drawn and color-separated by owner Brian Reed. They are then printed on our old but still nimble 1917 model letterpress. Our thick letterpress paper comes from Milan, Italy where they have been pulping this style of sheet for over 350 years.

Take a breath, have a cup of tea and write a letter by hand. Your soul will thank you and so will your friends!

We will be at the 2008 National Stationery Show this May 18-21. Please stop by booth #1551 to see our latest collection. Hope to see you there!
