May Day Studio is Kelly McMahon, a one-time poet and type junkie who learned the art of letterpress and never looked back. She proudly prints on five vintage printing presses (a Chandler and Price Pilot, a Chandler and Price 8x12, a Vandercook SP15, a Vandercook #1 and a Nolan proofing press) in her Montpelier, VT studio. She sources her 100% reclaimed card paper from New York State and uses USA-manufactured linseed oil based inks in her practice of the noble art of letterpress.
