A once in a lifetime collection of Letterpress equipment became available. We had lost some of our own equipment a while ago as it was only on loan, so this was an absolute opportunity to not only bring ours back up to where it was, but also to add a considerable amount of additional type to our studio within the art and design building. First we had to raise the money to purchase the equipment &#8211; and thanks to some of our quite amazing art and design alum (you know who you are), that&#8217;s exactly what we did, at quite short notice too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Second, we had to transport it all from downtown, to Bradley. No small feat, but again, people at both ends were only to happy to help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And so yesterday was the big &#8216;move in&#8217;. Everything went really smoothly &#8211; even with masks on! And everything, including the Vandercook, squeezed into the small elevator&#8230;. just!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/files\/2020\/09\/Letterpress1.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"7093\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/files\/2020\/09\/Letterpress1.jpg\" data-link=\"http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/letterpress1\/\" class=\"wp-image-7093\" srcset=\"http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/files\/2020\/09\/Letterpress1.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/files\/2020\/09\/Letterpress1-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/files\/2020\/09\/Letterpress1-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/files\/2020\/09\/Letterpress6.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"7098\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/files\/2020\/09\/Letterpress6.jpg\" data-link=\"http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/letterpress6\/\" class=\"wp-image-7098\" srcset=\"http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/files\/2020\/09\/Letterpress6.jpg 768w, http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/files\/2020\/09\/Letterpress6-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/files\/2020\/09\/Letterpress5.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"7097\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/files\/2020\/09\/Letterpress5.jpg\" data-link=\"http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/letterpress5\/\" class=\"wp-image-7097\" srcset=\"http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/files\/2020\/09\/Letterpress5.jpg 768w, http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/files\/2020\/09\/Letterpress5-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/files\/2020\/09\/Letterpress3.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"7095\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/files\/2020\/09\/Letterpress3.jpg\" data-link=\"http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/letterpress3\/\" class=\"wp-image-7095\" srcset=\"http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/files\/2020\/09\/Letterpress3.jpg 768w, http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/files\/2020\/09\/Letterpress3-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/files\/2020\/09\/Letterpress2.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"7094\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/files\/2020\/09\/Letterpress2.jpg\" data-link=\"http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/letterpress2\/\" class=\"wp-image-7094\" srcset=\"http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/files\/2020\/09\/Letterpress2.jpg 768w, http:\/\/art.bradley.edu\/will\/files\/2020\/09\/Letterpress2-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We are so excited, and thankful that we now have a wonderful Letterpress and Book Arts studio (2.0) all ready to go. <strong><em>Thank you<\/em><\/strong> to everyone who has helped make it happen, and we are looking forward to once again being able to offer this course and the craft it brings with it to our students soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, long story short.
