Set of Three Makeready Letterpress Bookmarks - Main image
$5.52 $8 In stock

Category: Bookmark

Makeready is a beautiful byproduct of letterpress printing: the first impressions made to register blocks and match colors.



We’ve carefully selected the best of ours and hand-trimmed them into charming, one-of-a-kind bookmarks, complete with silky tassels.



Package of three, every set is unique. Ships packaged in a protective cello sleeve (you can request we ship yours without this if you prefer to skip the plastic).

Penelope F. ★★★★★

I love how each bookmark has its own unique ink patterns and slight paper variations from the letterpress process. They add such a tactile, handmade feel to whatever I'm reading.

Ella V. ★★★★★

The edges are a little rough from the trimming, but that just adds to the handmade feel. I’m using one as a bookmark in my poetry collection and it adds a nice tactile touch.

Madison ★★★★★

These are actual makeready sheets from letterpress runs, so every one has different ink layering and color overlaps. I bought them mostly out of curiosity but ended up using the sturdiest one daily. Hand-trimmed edges mean no two are quite the same width, which I like more than I expected.
