East Point West Press is all about poetry and letterpress printing. My name is Griffith H. Williams, poet, illustrator, printer and binder. Within my rustic one man shop I use an antique letterpress to print a near monthly newsletter, as well as volumes of original poetry for myself and others. Most of my books, whether hardback collectors’ editions or limited run chapbooks, feature original linoleum block prints. My books, often written in formal verse, cover a wide range of topics; nature poetry, historical verse, mythological themes, lyrical reflection, and poetry for children. Many of my poems follow the formal structure of Welsh bardic verse. Each book is beautifully printed on acid free paper and hand sewn to create a timeless work of art. Books form the backbone of my catalog, but I also print original greeting cards, broadsides, Poetic Licenses, Tag Lines, and Good Word Walking, a letterpress newsletter.
