The Investigator Set
Description
The Investigator set, printed in a dark green ink, (also available as a calling card only) harkens back to the turn of the century engraver style layout, which utilized the handsome all caps glyphs of the typeface Engravure. The small and large uppercase character combination along with the flexible layout makes this a classy choice for a wide variety of uses. The title on the card and address on the note card uses Sackers Gothic, a modern sans serif engraver style font that accompanies Engravure fantastically and introduces a bit of needed contrast to the card. While all four corners of the card can be utilized for extra contact information, we particularly like a centered company / organization name in the top center. The address on the note card adds some personalization, but can certainly be omitted.

Why Letterpress Printing?
Put simply, letterpress printing is a form of relief printing, where the text or image is on a raised surface, similar to a rubber stamp. Ink is applied to the raised surface and then paper is pressed directly against it to transfer the text/image. Learn More.
