2019 Ye a r
Printed in Austin, Texas. LetterpressPLAY strives for sustainability in our practices, supporting community and fostering play for all.
Creator Kyle Hawley designs to inspire curiosity and wonder through zero-waste paper toys, cards, posters, washable paper hats, hankies, and garments. A portion of our proceeds go to our favorite children’s charities. Our paper products employ a full range of printing methods using lead or wooden type, blocks, or polymer plates. We print by hand or with machines dating back to the Industrial Revolution. All of our products and packaging are 100% biodegradable.
