Okay, we're sorta riding the crest of ampersandness here. Student Andy Mangold created a nice one-off celebrating a history of the ampersand. He used wintergreen oil to transfer photocopied layouts onto heavy, accordion-folded stock. I've never used wintergreen oil, but am starting to wonder about pairing that transfer technique with letterpress. Anyone know of a project that employs both transfer and letterpress? We'd be happy to be a guinea pigs for such a venture. Any suggestions for a project we can test it out on?
