Short-run Letterpress Printed CD Sleeve Pricing
Short-run Letterpress Printed CD Sleeve Pricing
There are four one-price, short-run sleeve options to choose from, with three slightly different prices*; each of these options’ pricing includes: 100 one-sided, one-color CD sleeves:
| $180 – The first option, and the most affordable is our Two-panel CD Sleeve Insert (w/ 100 Plastic CD Sleeves included) – Paper Stock of your choosing (I like French Paper, 100lb Cover options): |

| $210 – Option II – 18pt 100% recycled chipboard Arigato** CD sleeve blank: |

Ink colors you can choose from include:
Black, Gray, Metallic Silver, Metallic Gold, White, Reflex Blue, Yellow, and Red. No mix and match, and you can pick one.
Satisfaction is 100% guaranteed, just return the sleeves, and I will return your money in full. I’m not looking for one-off relationships, where I take the money and run. I want to develop strategic partnerships with labels, artists and other Do-It-Yourselfers like myself…

**These blanks are sold as flats, meaning they’re not assembled (see the background graphics above). Version A – The Arigato Pak, is an adhesive free foldable version. Version B is a CD sleeve insert which comes with a glossy polypro CD slip-sleeves, and requires no assembly. Email me for more details.

Hi Matt-
Just wanted to share some kudos with you. Thom and David’s friendly mugs were a fine how-do-you-do (what a duo, and what a fascinating interview!). But I truly related to your comments about the indie artist’s relationship to his/her means of distribution. Hear, hear! Watching the music and art-biz “Big Box” backlash (against all that is homogenized, heartless, and complacently status quo) is fascinating, and I have not lost faith that the independents will prevail!
I’m a teacher who wants to be a printmaker when she grows up, and definitely still learning about the process. Do you have any suggestions on reading materials and/or workshops for someone with little to no experience with letterpress?
Thanks for the good read, and thanks in advance for any input you might have!
Best,
Katie
