Fonderie Turlot, ces vignettes vendues dans leur propre boîte customisée, les filets 6 pt. (compartiment de droite) font en tout 2 mètres de longs, — de quoi faire maintes compositions bien étriquées. Le montage requiert bien de la patience ! #artnouveau #typographie #letterpress #vignettestypo #fleurons #metiersdart #faitmain #paris🇫🇷 #turlot #fonderieturlot #fonderietypographiquefrançaise #imprimerie #maisonboursier This lovely box in perfect condition from ca 1907, the catalogue Turlot announces 'le style moderne' and we are lost in the nenuphars. by @petropoliseditions

Un projet qui se termine enfin — tirage typo plomb sur fond collographie, jaquette pour livre réalisé avec sept élèves Erasmus de tout horizon. Collaboration with European students in a book with prints — they let me do the covers. #letterpress #typographie #graphisme #metiersdart #imprimerie by @petropoliseditions

Experiments overprinting with these lovely 1900s French wooden border pieces, such joyous curves.

the joys of vieux Paris and its ineffable charm, did I mention the café terrasse installed right bang in front my door where people smoke and yak/cackle from 9 am till 10 30 pm — from 5th April till the end of October?!! Who to loathe most, plumbers who won't show up or people who still smoke away whilst others eat in 2025?! #letterpress #degatdeau #dégât #dégâtdeseaux #degatdeseaux #parís and yes I am individually drying letters one by one with towels and kitchen roll; one 85 cm wide case disintegrated altogether, letters fall through... kin nightmare by @petropoliseditions

more flooding from 'upstairs' who say its not them on first floor; then owner not answering and plumber refused to intervene till tomorrow the 13th when it began last Sunday the 5th! #letterpress #studiodamage #leaks #insurance #parís #degatdeau and no-one wants to insure the place because of the ever humid ceiling being so bad. If you have a plan please share... at wit's end! And its still seeping! by @petropoliseditions
