Introducing Cranky Show Prints
Cranky Show Prints are built out of lead and wood type and then letterpress printed. Why hand build something when you can just clickety-click and create on the keyboard? Because it is cool and it is an analogue experience. Our handcrafted prints offer a tangible and timeless appeal. And yes, there is a difference that you can see and feel. It is something that will set your message apart from the usual ho hum digital noise. Available in small affordable quantities, you can use show prints for branding, selling, announcing, inviting, packaging and thanking. Ready to get cranking? Order your Show Prints today by emailing CrankyPress@gmail.com or really go old school by calling 1-800-433-1288.
