November 19, 2011: My New Website about Letterpress Printer & Photographer John Fass

"John Stroble Fass was a graphic designer and a printer of fine press books. Fass designed books for the leading American publishers of limited edition books."

"Collectors of private press books also remember John Fass for the handcrafted books he printed on a tabletop printing press in his one-room apartment at the Bronx YMCA. John named this press the Hammer Creek Press, for the stream which flows near his hometown of Lititz, PA."

"Fass' books and his photography celebrate his life in New York City, where he lived most of his career. His work also documents his passion for the rural landscapes of his native Lancaster County, Pennsylvania."
