MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Stephanie Carpenter, Project Manager of the Hamilton Wood Type & Printing Museum, joined us on Tuesday, Jan. 9 to discuss the "Old Type, New Ways: Work from the Hamilton Wood Type & Printing Museum" exhibition.
This showcase, featuring a mix of vintage prints and contemporary works, will be on display at the Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design's Frederick Layton Gallery from Tuesday, Jan. 16, and will run until March 9.
Carpenter discussed details of the exhibition, emphasizing its significance in preserving historical printing techniques. The Hamilton Wood Type & Printing Museum, based in Two Rivers, boasts the world's largest collection of wood type, with a history dating back to 1880.
The exhibition aims to celebrate the history of American advertising art but also highlights the evolving landscape of letterpress printing.
