I own a vintage letterpress that weighs 1500 pounds. My husband and I have moved it twice. Once we moved it ourselves, which aside from giving birth was one of the most stressful and physically challenging things I have ever done. The second time we got smart and hired a moving company. Along with this rather large piece of equipment I have drawers and drawers of accessories, lead type, wood type, ornaments, and lead slugs. Owning a letterpress is quite a commitment, not to mention having a space to house it all. Today is my 6 year wedding anniversary which speaks volumes since along with my own baggage I came with thousands of pounds of equipment...for better or for worse. Happy Anniversary!
I turned 39 on May 7th, 2009. I am documenting my 40th year of life by photographing everyday and posting it on this blog. Each day will in some way reference the previous day's image either visually or conceptually. The project will end on my 40th birthday.
What? Tell me more. Can I play with it?
