Description
On this age of digital media, the hand made ethic and aesthetic of a Hatch Show Print poster is beyond compare. Country musicians and magicians, professional wrestlers and rock stars, all have turned to Nashville’s historic Hatch Show Print to create showstopping posters. Established in 1879, Hatch preserves the art of traditional printing that has earned a loyal following to this present day (including the likes of Beck, Emmylou Harris, and the Beastie Boys). Hatch Show Print: The History of a Great American Poster Shop is the primary fully illustrated tour of this iconic print shop and in addition chronicles the long life and massive cast of employees, entertainers, and American legends whose histories are intertwined with it. Complete with 190 illustrations–in addition to a distinct book jacket that unfolds to expose an original Hatch poster at the reverse–Hatch Show Print is a dazzling document of this legendary institution.
