Dragon Press Bindery

Letterpress

In a world dominated by digital print, there remain those who value the aesthetics of letterpress printed material and the specialist skills involved. The individual character of raised type and its crispness of impression on fine quality papers result in a look and feel prized by seekers of unique, hand-crafted work, far removed from inkjet or laser productions. Dragon Press Bindery is proud to continue working in this tradition, using vintage hand-operated presses.

While our preference is to use hand-set type, we are happy to collaborate in creating computer-generated layouts to be turned into metal or polymer printing plates. The images shown here are just a few examples of our work.

Please contact us to discuss your special project, whether it be bespoke personal or business stationery, wedding or other invitations, announcements, bookplates, corporate gifts, fine press book work or, indeed, anything else. We look forward to talking to you.
