We are now shipping out for the new printing of the “By Hammer & Hand” letterpress poster and the “Lost Art Press Workbook.” And if you order by Friday, the shipping is free….
The “Workbook” is based on accounting ledgers from the 19th century, and it is meant for recording a permanent record of the things you have built, the finish you used and who now owns the piece. It also is an excellent place to record the hours you spent on a project, new designs and so forth. We printed only 1,000 as an experiment.
The “By Hammer and Hand” poster was designed and originally printed in 2015 by Brian Stuparyk. It sold out almost immediately. During the last eight years, many people have asked that we reprint it. So, with Brian’s blessing (he’s no longer in the printing business), we decided to do a new limited letterpress run of 500 with Boxcar Press in Syracuse, New York.

p.s. I doubt we’ll be offering either of these for wholesale (the margins and the print runs are small) – so if you’re outside the U.S., I recommend going through a re-shipper (more info here).
Could you give the dimensions please ?
The dimensions are noted in this blog: https://blog.lostartpress.com/2023/11/19/4-new-products-in-the-store/
For the poster? 13″ x 19″.
For the workbook? 4-1/2″ x 11-1/4″.
Would like to see the workbook page layout
It is the second image on the product page in the store. You are looking at a spread of two pages.
I’ll update the image tomorrow with a photo of the interior from the actual book.
Mine mine mine. Thanks for these.
