As part of my summer brief from university I was given a book, The Consolations of Philosophy by Alain de Botton, to read and then produce a review of in an A6 pamphlet format. I picked out the most memorable quotes from the book and letterpressed them onto the pamphlet, with my favourite quote set large on the back to form a poster. The body copy of the review was then screen printed onto the pamphlets. More Info
During the summer I was lucky enough to do some work experience with Jonathan Doney at the Spitfire Press in Taunton, Somerset (www.thespitfirepress.co.uk). Jonathan helped me produce part of my leaflet using his extensive letterpress facilities. Thanks also to Dave Fortune at the U.W.E. Print Centre for his assistance with the screen printing.
