Saturn Press

Kent, CTBrand · Paper goods

With feet planted on the rocky soil of Maine’s remote Swan’s Island, Jane Goodrich and Jim Van Pernis established Saturn Press in 1986. Their distinctive designs and high-quality letterpress printing attracted a large and loyal following. James and Deirdre Anderson assumed ownership in 2024. We now operate Saturn Press from the charming and historic town of Kent, Connecticut in the Litchfield Hills, with our print shop now located in the village of Northville twenty minutes away. After careers in product development and education respectively, we are proud to continue the tradition of designing, printing and distributing beautiful and unique letterpress greeting cards. Our business is very "hands-on", and we wouldn't want it any other way. We source the best paper we can buy - paper that you might not have seen in a greeting card for many years. We cut it on down to size on our 1950s hydraulic paper cutter. We mix our inks by hand and determine if we got it right by eye. We print on presses that are older than we are - two date from the 1940s, and the youngest is from the 1960s. It's a lot of work - but we can see the difference in the finished product. Customers love our cards because of the compelling (and sometimes quirky) designs printed on high-quality paper - they can see and feel the difference between a Saturn Press card and others. A Saturn Press card is the perfect way to celebrate a milestone, brighten someone’s day, or to share your sentiments with those you care about. Our guiding philosophy is simple - create beautiful things for everyday life. We hope you cherish your Saturn Press cards as much as we enjoy providing them to you.
