After doing a masterful job on our business cards, we started talking to Tim Butler, of Quality LetterPress, about a possible Art Trade.  He was looking for unique, screen printed poster backgrounds for his band, Hot Rod Lincoln, and offered a free round of Letter Pressed posters in exchange.

The minute I saw all of the vintage looking posters in Tim's shop, I immediately thought about Blackout Party, and how this would fit their vibe.  I grabbed Brian and Andrew and we spent a day with Tim, learning how to run LetterPress machines from the early 1900's.

here are some pictures and videos from our day.

If you want to make some posters before Tim and Hot Rod Lincoln head out on a European Tour with the Stray Cats, better email him soon.  You can find Quality Letter Press here.
