How did Pheasant Press come to be?
I discovered letterpress printing when I was planning the invitations for my wedding. I knew it was something I wanted to get involved in, so I found a press on eBay and bought it. It had belonged to a Minnesota couple that traveled to Tunica several times a year. They were willing to bring the press with them on their next trip, so one night my then-fiancée and I left Fayetteville and drove across the state to pick it up. It was very random to meet some strangers in Tunica and pick up an antique Kelsey printing press! The press was from an old pharmacy shop and it came with a cabinet full of type and cuts. I printed my first design, “Note From an Outlaw,” using the skull and crossbones from the poison labels.
