2015 CATALOG
A N OTE FROM T H E GSP GIRLS Dear Friends, Thank you for taking a stroll down Grove Street! We are delighted to introduce to you the longawaited first edition of our wholesale catolog. Grove Street is quickly becoming known for what the following pages represent: our love of tradition, American heritage, and classic designs with a little quirk. We print all of our products on antique presses in our shop, located on one of the few remaining cobblestones streets of New Orleans, Louisiana. May this catalog serve as a brief, but proper introduction to the joy that we find in life and that we hope to share with our products. With a big “Cheers!” from the Big Easy,
Cousins and business partners: Anna (L) and Kate (R) Greeting card model and shop pup: Mildred
OUR STORY Cousins Anna and Kate were born and bred thirty miles from the Gulf of Mexico in Lake Charles, Louisiana, with the eponymous lake itself in both of their backyards. The shelves in their childhood homes were filled with antique duck decoys, Newcomb pottery, and books on Latin translation. After twenty years as cousins and friends spent cultivating their imaginations under ancient oaks, they separated for a time: Anna went off to university and studied graphic design; Kate, English. The cousins have reunited in New Orleans, still friends, but now business partners as well; and they have found a way to combine these histories, both assimilated and learned, their appreciation of words and beauty, their love of the old South and of tradition, into a single art—letterpress printing.
