I would love to get me my hands on these letterpress plaid cards. I would rub them all day long.

Quipsologies adds One Column
As part of the re-launch of Quipsologies — the hard-working UnderConsideration blog that chronicles the most curious, creative, and notable projects, stories, and events of the graphic design industry — we have made some changes to FPO. Most notably is the addition of a third column that houses the feed of print-related Quips that are manually filtered from Quipsologies.
