Salt Lake Temple Letterpress Poster

Picture available here.
This is an intriguing find. Not only am I impressed by how much patience, time and effort it would take to do such a monstrous project, but I also find it quite beautiful.

"This letterpress poster was handcrafted character by character over the course of roughly 100 hours. Characters from the Bickham Script Pro, Engravers MT, and Epic typeface families form the edifice featured in the artwork, the Salt Lake Temple." Information taken from Design42Day's blog.

The poster was created by Cameron Moll, who is the artist behind Cameron Moll, LLC. You can purchase a copy of the poster here.





At $100.00, it is a bit pricey, but your copy will be:
-printed by Bryce Knudson on an old, unique printing press in Bjorn Letterpress in Utah, 
-signed by the artist, 
-and you will have helped a small indie company with your purchase!

Here is a video showing Mr. Knudson printing Mr. Moll's other masterpiece featuring the Coliseum of Rome, which is also available for purchase:
