Saturn Press cards are simply gorgeous. Based on Swan’s Island off the coast of Maine, three folks run the old fashioned letterpress operation. Heavy, recycled paper stock showcases the inspired greetings, which are all at once timeless, elegant, and whimsical. Beautiful enough to frame, each greeting card is a gift in itself.

Each card measures 5”x 7” and is blank inside. An envelope is included.

“We’re still at odds with the world …We employ two typewriters, some 3x5 card files, a stack of pencils and pens, and some carbon forms … Even the building we work in was built by us. Nail by nail, board by board, all by ourselves. Call us stubborn, antiques, dinosaurs. All compliments to us.”

“It’s a labor-intensive process but we have a niche market for people who appreciate the tactile quality of letterpress”

James vanPernis, Owner & Printer

“You know a Saturn Press card when you see it on the rack but you can’t describe it, which gives it the aura of being something special. There’s a story being told within a line that’s identifiable, but not necessarily describable. The best and skilled companies have a certain look and a certain feel, and that’s true of all creative artists.”
