I stopped by Repeat Press yesterday, to visit owner/printer Mike Dacey. He was nice enough to open up his studio so you guys could check out his world. And what a neat world it is. I was really transfixed by all the old machinery and stuff! SO many and letters! I would have pocketed a few but Mike kept his eye on me the entire time.
Repeat Press is housed (along with a bunch of other very creative folk) in an large, old, carpenter workshop, above Open Bicycle in Somerville. There is a ton of creative energy flying around that little corner! Let's get a look at his space...
Make sure to continue checking out the visit after the jump.
Check out that Record! Mike had the plate made for a suite of products for Middlesex's five year anniversary.
Mike's giving me a dry run of how the press worked. I had so many questions! I forgot to take better photos of this beast!
Speaking of jobs, the above is an awesome video shot by Quarter Productions of Mike working on a commission for High Snobiety/Selectism. Coasters!
Mike's print made exclusively for Corduroy: Surf. Skate. Art. Love. Purchase here.
Another commission for local shop Proletariat. Only five of these bad Larrys left! Purchase here.
Thanks Mike!
