Niche blog for those interested in printing

In Seydisfjordur there is the Skaftfell Center for Visual Art with an exhibition by 50s artist and publisher Dieter Roth.  

Highlights were some tiny leather bound books and some circular prints.

There was also a little bookshop, unfortunately closed.

Further along the main street of the village is the Technical Museum which has two rooms entirely dedicated to printing.

This is a map printer

And old press

Some print blocks (I bought a postcard of one ofthese for you James)

Loads of appealing trays of typeface (many more complicated letters in Icelandic)

Typesetting machine

The outside of the Technical Museum was, erm, understated.

I loved it.  That is all.
