Display of letterpress posters

The Nation­al Library of Scot­land is host­ing a dis­play of lim­it­ed edi­tion let­ter­press posters from 1 April to 2 May at their build­ing on George IV Bridge. The posters have been designed by graph­ic design stu­dents at Edin­burgh Napi­er Uni­ver­si­ty, where print­ing was taught for more than 40 years.

The posters have been inspired by Robert Smail’s Print­ing Works at Inner­lei­then, which is cel­e­brat­ing 150 years of oper­a­tion this year. Smail’s is now in the care of the Nation­al Trust for Scotland.

Details of open­ing times are on the Nation­al Library of Scot­land’s web­site.
