Introducing the Greenfield Village Printing Office collection of hand printed letterpress postcards.
Each design celebrates our collection of 19th century antique wood and metal type along with 21st century artisan printing techniques, creating truly unique prints. These postcards were printed on our 1880’s treadle-driven platen press, one color at a time. The back is printed with a vintage electrotype postcard cut with space to write a message. The results are small, multi-layered works of art, perfect for sending a special note in the mail, or collecting each design to add to your home decor!
The Mrs. D. Cohen Millinery Postcard celebrates the beloved circa 1880’s Detroit hat shop, now located in Greenfield Village. Our artisan printmaker created a background print from real lace, then printed atop it with a whimsical hand carved linocut hat. The design is finished with hand-set vintage metal type in 48 point Ultra Bodoni on French’s Steel Blue cardstock.
Dims: 4 x 6".
