Post Rider Press is a small letterpress studio based in Richmond, Virginia. Our goal is to create stationery that brings a fresh perspective to the time-honored craft of letterpress printing. We take pride in the fact that each item is thoughtfully designed and hand-fed one by one into our vintage press.
Meet Colby! (she/her) Colby Beck is the designer and printer behind Post Rider Press. She began her career in fashion design before crossing into the stationery world. While working as a menswear designer in New York, she had an opportunity to apprentice with a letterpress printer and it was love at first print run. She eventually left the fashion world, bought her first press , and Post Rider Press was born.
When she's not printing she enjoys making a mean cup of coffee, writing a letter to a friend, or summiting a mountain peak.
Colby is a firm believer that a thoughtful note, received by mail, can brighten anyone's day. She hopes to inspire you to write the people in your life more.
Meet Carl! Carl is our 1950s Chandler and Price platen printing press, which we named after it's previous owner who passed away. Everything made at Post Rider Press has been hand-fed, one at a time through this printing press. He's old but he's still cranking away!
Our company is dedicated to keeping hand-written communication alive and it is our hope, that every card we create makes those who receive them smile.
