I stopped by Pyramid Atlantic Art Center in Silver Spring, Md., for tonight's letterpress happy hour, using the time to typeset a new project (to print later). Realized after the fact that I'd typeset most of it backwards. Sigh.
These are they who have been valiant in the defense of freedom and in their commitment to that freedom.

A British letter from 1858 regarding information sources for coal use by locomotives. The recipient was a law firm. The stamped envelope in which this was sent is elsewhere on this Flickr site.
Cursive is one of my favourite bands. Tim Kasher is such a nice guy and he creates such intense music, with Cursive as well as The Good Life. Had the pleasure to speak with him twice, once representing Cursive, once The Good Life. I like the shirt because it's probably the only shirt with fairies on it, that a guy can wear without looking too girlie.
These are pretty self explanatory. Except for one cool thing... the language is readable upside-down!
Taalen, the language, is maapeasa.
Serali, a girl who loves scripts, is pengita (typo in the image - it's NOT -t'ha).
Dauyn, spider (literally, it steps around) is maanoash.
Teitha means "letters".
Eidyn is how Aidan would be spelled by the Taala.
Shai is "fire".
Shouva is "image" - though there are spelling errors - it's missing the fricative mark, and has an extra syllable; it actually says shoubana. Oy.
Tsul means "I walk", from shul, to walk. The 1sg agentive prefix is n-, which combines with a following s or sh to make ts, but is written with the nasalizer and the original form of the word. At least, it can be written that way. Typo here too - it says tsol because I put the vowel mark on the wrong side of the line.
Boingi is there for Serali, who also loves boingies.
Sovyrandas is the name of the Taala capital. Though this actually says Sobrydas, thanks to my spelling errors.
Sera, leis, and than are the 3 Forces of which the universe is made, characterized by water, earth, and fire, and somewhat corresponding to passive, neutral, and active.
Sorry about the typos/spelling errors - still getting used to the script, obviously. It's easier to read than you'd think - for me it is, anyway. My problem is I keep thinking of English, which connects the upstrokes of the u at the bottom, for example, so I keep putting the diacritic beneath the line - which makes it o.
Sttrrreeakkk! Turn the car around, was that a chocolate store!? I loved the way the left the E out at the end of Chocolate~~~

My niece working on her cursive. She's pretty hardworking. I love her.
Random Fact: I think that teaching typing is more important than cursive nowadays.
