It’s Valentine’s Day no doubt. A bit of charming mid-century play combined with a beautifully spare typographic letterpress card seems like a good formula for today or any other. Enjoy your holiday no matter how or how not you may be celebrating. Apologies for the brief post today while I take a long weekend, will be back in full force mañana.

p.s. Learn about LP cover artist Abner Graboff (1919–1986) in illustrator Ward Jenkins’ multi-part blog series which includes a fantastic interview with Mr. Graboff’s son, Jon, who is a musician and producer. I highly recommend you make the jump. [ Part 1Part 2Part 3 ]
