Letterpress printed Weltformat poster (89.5×128 cm / 35.2×50.4 in) produced in 13 printing passes from hand-cut linoleum and a complicated large format linoleum etching. Watch the video.

The fonts in use are a completely distorted LL Ruder Plakat by Lineto for the three words “Werk-Statt-Schau” and Messina Sans by Luzi Type for the smaller information and the museum logo. Through the etching process, there is not much left from the original Ruder Plakat face… Also the smaller info and the logo in the top left corner are hand-cut linoleum, which is not an absolutely accurate reproduction of the font.
