A rather lovely thing about running a blog is that people from all over the place get in touch out of the blue to tell you about projects they’re working on. And we reckon we’ve been pretty lucky so far, as nearly all the stuff that’s been sent our way has been dead interesting. One such project is the new book coming up from the Print Liberation studio in Philadelphia. It’s a primer on how to start screen printing using really basic elements, and is written by Nick Paparone & Jamie Dillon from the studio, in collaboration with Luren Jenison, with illustrations by Tim Gough. It looks fantastic – we can’t wait to get our hands on a copy.Print Liberation is published on July 25, by F+W Publications, the kids behind How, ID and Print magazines. -aisleone.com

This guide strikes a very nice balance. It has just enough information without being overwhelming, and it is also well-designed for more inspiration. I am a firm believer that craft books need to have lots of big color photographs, because a lot of the time seeing makes more sense than reading, when you are learning about making. And those are your verbs for today.

We just got a bunch of copies of “Print Liberation – The Screen Printing Primer” in the store today! This is by far the best screen printing tutorial book we’ve seen to hit the market.

Print Liberation is a nice-looking basic how-to guide for screen printing without the need for too much fancy equipment. All books should have action movie trailers like this-drawn.ca Print Liberation Book Trailer: Witness Print Liberation’s totally wacko trailer for their book The Screen Printing Primer which will show you how to start screen printing today using the most basic elements—a screen, some emulsion in a bucket, artwork, a light source and a sink. It’s also worth noting, since he reps Philly, that Ricky Oyola skated to the same Metallica song in Eastern Exposure 3. -urban outfitters
