Printing a larger cut deserves a larger brayer! In this video, Howard prints a copy of a cut. This cut is a reproduction of W.C. Butler’s letter sheet, “Commandments to California Wives.” This was originally published in 1855 and presented a satirical guide for women in California during the Gold Rush. Prints of this are now for sale in our Museum Store! You can find other prints for sale on our website as well! https://shopsachistorymuseum.org/BrowsePage.aspx?searchtype=navitem&NavItemID=100001

In honor of the start of the season, Howard letterpress printed something for the Sacramento Kings. This electrotype clearly shows its age because basketballs stopped having laces in the late 1930s. The font is 24 point Caslon. #NBA #NBAA2022 #sacramento #basketball #letterpress #printing | Sacramento History Museum | Facebook
