Because sometimes when there's just the right chemisty in the room, and more ridiculous ideas than you know what to do with (day after day after day), a business is born. That chemistry was already in play at Asher and Erin's brick-and-mortar girt shop in Providence, RI, when the extraordinarily tall and talented Maret joined the crew. It wasn't long before Maret was sketching all our dumb ideas (
including her own), and eventually we thought, "Hey, why not share this stuff? It's f$& funny!"
So we started making cards...then iron-on patches, pencils, and pennants, too. Next thing we knew, we were expanding into a studio space that now serves as the hum for our design work. From there, we partner folks who run antique letterpresses and famimly-owned mills, upholding a tradition of production that delivers a classic, Old World quality. It is so important to us to work with good people, in time-honored American trades, on tried-and-true age-old equipment, to bring you the finest finished product. And most days you can still find us (ALL of us) jammed into our tiny Hope Street back office, doubled over laughing.
