this is a post i wrote as contributor to the amsterdam ad blog ‘something related to amsterdam’ column, originally posted on the 10th of january 2014…
not everyone’s type
I just wanted to share a great place I discovered this week; situated halfway between our appartment and my office, on the Singel near Dam Square.
letterpress amsterdam is a small type studio that produces all kinds of exotic bespoke printed matter. The friendly owner Thomas spent some time to show me around and explain what he does with his two wonderful old presses, metal typesetting and some funky old wooden type blocks. I am certainly going to be going back there very soon.
Oh yeah and pssst… try and keep it a secret otherwise everyone will want to go there too.

earlier today i was checking the work of amsterdam photographer cor jaring who made some amazing shots during his long career, jaring passed away late last year
my absolute favourite of his images has to be the dusty labourer (shown here at the top)
the prints are also for sale, so if anybody is looking for an early birthday present tip… take the hint
