When it comes to items in our print shop exhibit, we may know who donated the items and who manufactured them. What is often lost is how they were originally used. We became incredibly interested in the Lewis Winter Collection because we knew he was a local engraver for letterpress cuts for newspaper advertisements. In doing more and more research, we kept finding cuts from our print shop used in Sacramento Record-Union newspaper ads from the 1890s.

The two cuts for this print are rows of barrels and a column of beer bottles for a reoccurring Buffalo Brewing Company ad from June 1897 to November 1899. In this video, Jared shows recreating the first ad from June 24, 1897. However, we only have one of each of the cuts so being able to replicate the full ad in one impression is impossible.

When it came to recreating the ad, it took about 3 hours to typeset the text in the closest typeface possible to the original, including the spacing. The fonts used were 12 and 18 point Deepdene. Fifty copies were printed with black rubber base ink using our Washington hand press. Prints are available in our museum store!

me: oh, well, one of the blog posts I write for this book definitely has to be about food in ancient greece. it's such a huge part of the story. the whole book is about starvation and satiation. I did some research while writing, but I'll have to find a better source for the blog post.

We have a new exhibit at the Sacramento History Museum about the history of beer in our city! Thirsty '49ers, fertile soil, and the Transcontinental Railroad turned beer and brewing into Sacramento's other Gold Rush. Covering brewing up to today, our new exhibit, Liquid Gold: Sacramento’s Brew History, is on display until July 22nd.

In this video, Jared letterpress printed some cards to go along with our new exhibit. The cards were printed with black rubber base ink using a 3x5 Kelsey Excelsior tabletop printing press. The card reads, “Liquid Gold: Sacramento’s Brew History.” The font is 30 point Caslon for the first line and 24 point for the other lines. The electrotype of a brewer was made in the 1890s and is from the Lewis Winter Collection. These prints are free for visitors who see the exhibit. At the end of the video, Jared gives a quick look at the exhibit. Thank you to all the local breweries for contributing to this exhibit and for your support!

A Tale of Two Cities: Travels to Louisville

A travel post at The Storytelling Blog. Because every place tells a story. Louisville, Kentucky and St. Louis have striking similarities, I think. Do you agree? #travel #Louisville #setting

Louisville, as seen from the Big Four Bridge. Sometimes a new place is much like home. I have traveled to Louisville, Kentucky twice for the Imaginarium Convention, and managed some sightseeing in the process. East on Interstate 64 for about a four-hour drive, Louisville’s fondness for fleur-de-lis emblems reminded me of my home base, St. Louis, and got me thinking about the parallels between…
