            Two Examples of Foil Stamping on Black

Left:   Was a die run with gold shiny foil on black coated cove.  The coted cover is superb in
accepting the foil and creates a clean upbeat look.

Right:  This was entirely set with in house hot metal type using Ludlow typesetting in Steller Bold,
Mayfair Cursive and Ultra Modern.  It was foil stamped using shiny silver foil on Howard Linen.  
Because the paper stock is not coated the shiny silver is more subtle and allows for ease of
reading.  Not using dies made this invitation an excellent value for the client.

This is a
Hot Foil Stamped Invitation

In our hot stamping process we
use foundry type or in this case
Ludlow typesetting.  The metal
type is standing in relief and is
then presses into the paper.

In this example Admiral Script
set on the Ludlow line caster
was used.  The gold is a mat
gold which gives an elegant
almost burnished look

Ribbon and mounting was
completed in our shop
