Sisterly Surprise Makes For a Wonderful Boxcar Visit

Right before the holidays, Boxcar enjoyed a visit from designer, printer, letterpress instructor, and sister: Amy Redmond. 

Amy’s sister, Carrie, called and arranged the tour as a surprise.  She kept Amy guessing until a short time before they got to our studios.

It was more of a meeting of minds and souls than a tour, as we spent a couple of hours with Amy and Carrie.  We traded stories, shared tips and tricks printer to printer, and discovered how Amy got to where she is now, a Seattle-based freelance graphic designer and instructor of an introductory letterpress printing class at the School of Visual Concepts in Seattle.

We are thankful to Amy for being a mentor to many students of letterpress and for giving us a fun day at Boxcar!
