We have officially reached a viewership level that has never been obtained by another museum before! All of us at the Sacramento History Museum are in disbelief.

We would have never thought that our institution, a small nonprofit museum in Sacramento, California, could reach this many views, but we are incredibly thankful for all of those who take the time to watch our videos and for your support.

In this video, Howard letterpress printed a headline announcing “Sacramento History Museum Reaches One Billion Video Views On YouTube” while using our Washington hand press, which was manufactured in 1852!

Oops!

It's not uncommon in early printing for a book to be produced out of order, or on more than one press simultaneously. Printers were skilled at estimating how many pages a manuscript would make as a printed book in order to keep the pagination consistent, even if page 53 was already done when it came time to print page 52. The system, however, was not infallible, as seen here.

So this project has been coming together nicely. See below the cut to see how the whole printmaking process went and hear me yak about it!

What started as a sketchbook idea was traced over, refined, flipped, transferred to some easy cut lino, carved, and then today we did some test printing! The first two are the proofs that came out first on dry paper. The second pair of proofs are on dipped paper. The third pair are on misted paper. I used some Bristol smooth because it's what I had lying around. I've also got some sheet watercolor (Either Arches or Winsor+Newton) but I haven't tried it yet. I used Speedball fabric oil-based ink. I feel like I need to go pick a printmaker's brain because it's been a decade since I did this and I don't remember what papers we used among other things. I now also need to figure out if my blotchiness is technique, if it's paper, and whether or not I would benefit from a small lever press. These were burnished with a combination of spoon and thunder egg brayer. Yes I said thunder egg I am just that unintentionally metal. It's like a sliced open geode except it's smooth agate instead of crystals so it's shaped very perfectly for what I needed today.

March 15th is the Ides of March. It is on this day in 44 BC that Julius Caesar, the emperor of Rome, was assassinated.

For today, Jared letterpress printed the last words of Caesar. While we truly don’t know Caesar’s last words, the quote “Et tu, Brute?”appears in Act 3 Scene 1 of William Shakespeare's play Julius Caesar, where it is spoken by Caesar to his friend Marcus Junius Brutus, upon recognizing him as one of the assassins.

The phrase “Et tu, Brute?” was typeset in 30 point Engravers Old English font. This was printed with black rubber base ink using a 3x5 Kelsey Excelsior tabletop printing press.
