Letters from Century Press RSS

If letterpress printed books were aesthetically superior to contemporarily printed books, why did they stop being printed with letterpresses? I was on a mission to find the answer.

When thinking about The Great Gatsby, many people conjure up a movie just as quickly as the novel. While the recent ones can still be watched today, the original 1926 film adaptation has been lost to the world.

I wouldn’t advise anyone to judge a book by its cover, but by all means, you should feel free to judge it by how its constructed.
