Hi, we're Egg Press! We are a letterpress greeting card company, founded and owned by designer Tess Darrow (to your left). We’ve been making our signature cheeky and thoughtful greeting cards in our Portland, Oregon studio since 1999. Each and every Egg Press card is printed on our fleet of mid-century Heidelberg windmill presses. Our two printers bring a collective 30+ years of printmaking experience to the table. Each color you see on our cards is a hand-mixed ink, run through the press, one at a time. Your choice of Egg Press cards supports this special craft of letterpress printing! Egg Press prints greeting cards for many designers and artists. Our letterpress cards are stocked in hundreds of independent shops and retailers across the globe! You'll find our cards in museum gift shops, florists, grocery stores, and other thoughtful places. We believe the power of written communication is invaluable. We believe in thick luxurious paper. We believe in the unique impression that only letterpress produces. Find a penpal, write to your mom, be a snob about your stamps… revel in your stationery!
