Amos Kennedy posters
We are always on the lookout for things we can add to our collection of letterpress samples. Recently we discovered the website of Amos Kennedy | http://www.kennedyprints.com/. We arranged to buy six of his posters. On the left is Jill’s favorite and on the right is Ray’s favorite from the six.

It is worth a special note about the envelope the posters came in. A wonderful piece in its own and essentially it was free. The postman said they get a lot of these at the end of the year when people are trying to get rid of their extra stamps. He called it “wallpapering.” I suspect this is more than just dumping the odd stamps. Note the return address (very top) and our address (very bottom). The Post Office probably doesn’t think this is as fun as we did.
