Casa Mia Gift Certificates

I spent the afternoon printing a new round of gift certificates for Casa Mia Café, to feed the demand for the holidays. They’ll be on sale as soon as the ink is dry.

Casa Mia Gift Certificate Samples along with the type used to print them

They are printed on Indian cotton rag paper from Khadi Papers on my now-99-year-old Golding Jobber № 8 letterpress in Futura 30 pt. and 24 pt. and Bodini 14 pt. They’re available in $20 and $50 denominations.

I came for the letterpress photo, but I stayed for the use of the "№" character.

Welcome to the exciting world of the Numero sign. The key thing you have to know is that on a Mac you can emit a numero sign with shift + option + semi-colon. Once you know this, your life will never be the same.
