What’s a Wayzgoose you ask? There are no fowl involved, though back in the day this printers entertainment may have included a goose, when the master printer threw a feast for his workers.

As the geese fly south for the winter, the Letterpress Depot and the Rocky Mountain Letterpress Society (aka The Wrong Fonts) will have our own modern Wayzgoose. Instead of a goose, we will offer a swap meet/sale of letterpress printing materials & equipment, light lunch & refreshments, an open tour of the continuing historic rehabilitation construction of the Depot building and an intro to our letterpress printshop and museum collection. Please join in the inky fun, October 1, 10:30 - 2 pm.
We’re located at 3098 South Galapago, at Galapago & Dartmouth in Englewood. If you have any questions, email us at englewooddepot@gmail.com or call 720-480-5358. And if you want more on the interesting etymology of Wayzgoose, check out this fun post on the Word Wide Web.
