Books on Letterpress
Hello,
I’m new to this site so please forgive the fact that I’m sure this question has already been answered many times.
We are in the process of creating a letterpress area as part of our printmaking and graphic design majors at our university. Could someone please suggest books on letterpress (and perhaps a good place to get them). I’m looking for books for instructors and for students. Thanks for any help you can give. Lucy g.

Recommended books are found down the page a bit.
Just to add to Arie’s comment: The first book on David Rose’s list, General Printing, is probably what you will want as a textbook, and is now readily available (under $25) as a paperback in the reprinted edition by Liber Apertus Press.
