Kent Aldrich

Aldrich began printing at a time when the practice was out of favor and now, over 20 years later, The Nomadic Press houses five presses, including two that were built in the late 1800s.

Visit Kent Aldrich's letterpress shop, The Nomadic Press, and it's quickly clear that something's a little different. Time seems to slow, small details take on weight, attention is paid. Aldrich began printing at a time when the practice was out of favor and now, over 20 years later, The Nomadic Press houses five presses, including two that were built in the late 1800s. Aldrich is dedicated to the hand craft tradition and imbues even contemporary designs with old world style.
