I saw a young guy doing this with the stationery – I wished I spoke German so I would look less like a creepy stalker as I watched him. Germans love having artisians work in their department stores during the holidays – they have people painting ornaments etc.
I also saw some people selling letterpress blocks at the Tollwood Festival. They were promoting them as wax seals and had some quite elaborate designs.
Now I just need to learn more about where I can study book arts in Germany or get my hands on one of these bad boys.
