Letterpress documentary

A very interesting creativetechs' documentary video cilp on letterpress. They talk about the letter printing process and many other things. I have to say that it looks so beautiful! I love it! The way it the letters and other decorating elements are printed on paper make it so distinctive compared to the other printing technology. It's a pity that it is on the verge of extinction (well, at least that's what the guy in the video clip said, would be nice if he is wrong). Lastly, I think what the printer said near the end of the video is very interesting: "yes, make it attractive but make it be what the texts need to be".
