In response to our Maker Business coverage, I got a wonderful email from Fran Shea of Zeichen Press. She wanted to tell us about her foray into the small letterpress business she started with her sister-in-law, Jen. Being a huge letterpress fanboy, how could I resist? Here's a short interview I conducted with Fran. -- Gareth

First off, can you give us a little background on your company, where you're located, what you do, and what made you decide to go into this particular business.
We're in Minneapolis, MN. We do a few things: We design and letterpress-print a line of greeting cards that are sold in indie boutiques around the world. THE WORLD. We also design and letterpress-print custom projects like: posters, invitations, business cards, etc.. We also handle creative and marketing for companies that trust us to do that for them. Jen's background is in interior design, and mine is graphic design and art direction, so this seemed like a natural direction.
