WE MAKE LOGOS, FOR REAL, LIVING PEOPLE: And one of those people is Jessica Kleiderman and her Forktown Food Tours enterprise. She’s launching it right here in Portland, and will be taking hungry folks around town to culinary hot spots. Just show up, be carted around and chow. A nice treat, you know?

We made her logo and a card of business, then pushed her into the “letterpress world” and Portland’s Keegan Meegan took it from there. Check out those cards up above! Great work!

Very proud of this one. Best of luck, Kleiderman!

We make stuff for people. Just a couple hundred pixels above = Unequivocal Proof. Facts are stubborn things.

ONE OF THE WEB’S GREATEST PORTALS: The Stomper 4x4 page! Been here about 382 times. So good. Brings back many, many memories of those little foam tires, and tearing them apart down to that weird copper spinning transistor engine thing. So good. Miss them.

Click here and get a smile from ear to ear. I just can’t take it. Happy as hell each time I get to that page.

And while you are there, make sure you pay some respects to Mr. Goldfarb. (Hell yes, Patrick!)
