Making a letterpress print for the @Athletics

The season is underway for the Athletics who play at Sutter Health Park right across the river from Old Sacramento. To show some support for our home team, Jared letterpress printed some cards with green ink using a 3x5 Kelsey Excelsior tabletop printing press. The print includes an image of a 1940s baseball player and the text above, set in 30 point Caslon, states, “Let’s go A’s!” The “A” though is typeset in Engravers Old English font. Forty prints were made on this press run. Going to a game at Sutter Health Park? Visit the Sacramento History Museum the same day as the game, present your ticket to the game, and enjoy half off admission to the museum! #athletics #mlb #baseball #art #green #SacHistoryMuseum #sacramento #museum #history #letterpress #printingpress #asmr #printing #unintentionalasmr #printmaking #oldsacramento #ytshorts #youtubeshorts #youtube #shorts #shortvideo #springonshorts
