Farlows Thames Trout Print is a is a quirky and nostalgic limited-edition letterpress artwork.
They are hand-printed using a vintage proofing press and composed entirely of salvaged wood and metal printers type combined with antique advertising prints blocks - most well over 100 years old.
Farlows Thames Trout Print is a reimagined, advert from a 19th Century Hardys Catalogue. Printed using wood type, wooden rule, ornaments and an early Pflueger spinner. The piece was printed after catching my first 'Thames trout' on the River Wandle - a Thames tributary in 2016.

Size: 256mm x 408mm
