FPO

I’m a big fan of Armin Vit’s blogs—UnderConsideration, BrandNew, SpeakUp and TheDesignEncyclopedia. He’s just announced a new one, FPO (ForPrintOnly) that’s worth subscribing to.

One of the first postings is a detailed look at Amelia Lyon’s $2,000 business card project. It features red stitching by sewing machine, hand-applied stickers and letterpress printing. Costing a mere $1.33 per card, they occupy the other end of the spectrum from cards printed at OvernightPrints.com.
