What do you think of when you hear the name, "Hatch?" Chickens, of course! Well, that's apparently what comes to mind for most people. When the Hatch brothers, Charles and Herbert, opened our shop in 1879, they received quite a few chicken-related questions about the business. They decided to embrace the image and used the motto, "We crow about our prompt service!" Today, as we are still using imagery and blocks carved by the Hatch family, their roosters and other fowl pop up in our designs from time to time.

Love you more this poster is born of a parent's love . . . But no matter if it's what you say when you say goodnight to your kids each night, or the perfect sentiment to present to your future partner, or, in our case, what we say to the crankiest piece of wood type in the poster as we're making it ready to print, it does not get any better than this beautiful beautiful three color antique wood type printed on off white paper. We couldn't love this print more!

Perfect for your workshop or garage, this handmade poster is a playful reminder to check one's accuracy before making a mistake. The birth of this print was kismet. Letterpress printing requires an unflagging attention to detail, including measuring multiple times throughout the process, from design to final trim. The week we found the time to print the first run, a national quilters' conference had set up at the Nashville convention center, across the street from our shop. As attendees popped over for a visit, they assumed we had designed and printed it just for them. Indeed, it was for them, along with our fellow letterpress printers and woodworkers, or really anyone who works with a measuring stick. It was also a great opportunity to use some of our big wood type from the magical "wall o' wood", and mess it up at the very end with that final cut.

Size: 11" x 16" Letterpress print.

Printed on a Vandercook SP-15.
