The little shop in Tennessee known as Hatch Show Print has such a large collection of poster and flyer designs that they've printed for decades, and well possibly centuries.  These poster designs have enough character about them by modern day standards, but the fact that they're still printed with the carved wooden letters on a letterpress make them just that much more freaking awesome.

Run and maintained by Jim Sherradan, Hatch Show Print has been making flyer and poster designs since the 1800's, the same old school way, on a Vandercook Press.   If you love this Nashville-based letterpress poster designer, check out the poster he designed for the documentary on flyers and posters, American Artifact. 

Hatch Show Print - American Artifact

An amazing letterpress poster by Hatch Show Print, an infamous shop that has been cranking out carved wooden type on paper since the 1950's in Nashville.  You can check out just how old-school their printmaking process is on their clip on the American Artifact website.  If you can, check out the trailer and see if they're screening in your area, because its a pretty cool documentary on the traditional and non-digital craft of making flyers and posters.
