Just another day casting type.

A once in a lifetime opportunity! Come join the Arion Press team at our Presidio facility (1802 Hays Street) on Friday, March 21 and Saturday, March 22 for our first ever garage sale. We'll be parting with type, metal, art frames, paper scraps, and more! Items will be heavily discounted and we're encouraging shoppers to load up to their hearts' desires. This is a wonderful and rare opportunity to take one last passthrough of the historic laundry facility that served as our center of operations for over two decades. Join us both days from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. #letterpressprinting #letterpressequipment #typecastingmachines

Just another day of mic-ing up 48pt Phenix to figure out how much space to leave for the exclam caps for our upcoming publication while casting the folios. Yep. Just another . . . normal. . . . day.

We found this mat today. I think we found the name for our new band.

Sometimes these things happen. One less 12pt Deepdene Cap font in the world. #arionpress #piedtype

Here is another one. I don't see the other three. Hopefully they are in another flat file.

Found this pretty broadside buried in a flat file. English Monotype Ornament Broadsheet #5. #leadtype #typearchive #monotype

Yesterday we lost a great one. Tomorrow marks 5 years since we lost a former apprentice and journeyman. Tough feelings in San Francisco today.

#ExperienceSFHistory on September 25-27, 2020. Arion Press will be participating in #SFHistoryDays for the fourth year in a row. Although we’ve had to suspend indefinitely in-person tours of the pressroom, type foundry, and book bindery, you can get a virtual glimpse inside this living museum at 4pm PDT on Saturday, September 26, 2020. Learn from type caster Brian Ferrett how traditional handcrafted books are still made today. FREE, pre-registration required. Check out @sf_historydays  for more.⁠ ...⁠ #SFHistoryIsHere #sfoewd #bookmaking #typecasting #letterpressprinting #virtualtour #madeinsf #sfmade #onlyinsf #livingmuseum @sfoewd
