hatch show print, a nashville institution

nick and i had a really great drive from new york to austin this past weekend. we were lucky enough to stop in both nashville and memphis and spend time in both cities. one of the shopping treasures i came across was in nashville - specifically, a little company called hatch show print who i had never heard of...but had seen their work many times before without knowing it.

We're one of the oldest working letterpress print shops in America, and over the years our posters have featured a host of country music performers ranging from Hall of Famers Hank Williams, Bill Monroe and Johnny Cash to present-day stars Garth Brooks, Wynonna Judd and Shania Twain.

they had some really cool posters for sale, along with some greeting cards and postcards. don't be surprised if you get a card from me with the unmistakable look of a hatch print...

above: ten pack of thank you cards, $20

above: it's better pure coffee print, $15

So jealous you got to go there-- I love their work! You can find a lot of their stuff here for those of us not lucky enough to make it to Nashville: http://www.gigposters.com/designer/33935_Hatch_Show_Print.html (such a great website)
