@sachistorymuseum: We wanted to remind you to stay classy with a pink greeting card! In this video, Jared demonstrates letterpress printing greeting cards in a pink rubber base ink, which is a mix of rhodamine red and opaque white ink. This press run involved printing 60 cards using a 3x5 Kelsey Excelsior tabletop printing press. The electrotype (copy of a woodcut) of the very fashionable lady first appeared in a newspaper ad published in the Sacramento Daily Record-Union on November 14, 1896. This cut is from the Lewis Winter Collection. The type “Stay Classy!” is 30 point Cloister Black font. The back of the card includes an image of a Washington hand press and the words “Printed at the Sacramento History Museum.” This card and other cards are available in our Museum Store! #SacHistoryMuseum #greetingcards #pink #art #sacramento #museum #history #letterpress #printingpress #asmr #printing
