Typeface Screening at Walker

If you want to check out more of the work from moonpost, get yourself over to the Walker this week, November 6th 2008, for the local screening of the new documentary from Kartemquin Films called "Typeface." We shot some of the footage you'll see in this cool new film earlier this year and we're excited to see the final flick. Join us!
Although the heyday of wood type was more than a century ago (think “Wanted” posters and circus broadsides), its revival and preservation carries on today. A new film, Typeface, chronicles this effort by documenting the Hamilton Wood Type Museum in Two Rivers, Wisconsin, which houses one of the premier wood-type collections in the world and runs letterpress workshops for designers and artists from across the country.
