David Wolfe is fishing for a big one....

This is the most recent work by David Wolfe, of Wolfe Editions fame. He is one of the best letterpress guys I know and I never cease to be surprised by what he creates. I love that he does not limit himself to presswork.

David took a class at Haystack and, because he is wildly more talented than I (or, most likely, you), this is the result. As I say, he never ceases to amaze me. Let me know if you can't live
without it...
