Branding, and Marketing

I toyed with the idea of making my own set of stamps, but when I estimated my time it became clear that finding something already made would be less costly. A quick search gave me an address in the East Village, and it being a nice enough day I decided to walk. This not only gave me a chance to stretch my legs, but also an opportunity to scope out interesting things to photograph in the future.

I have installed a wonderful app on my phone. Urban Archive. It is a vast collection of photographs of NYC, a great resource that I hope to make use of. Would be a nice project to photograph any remaining structures from the collection, or what is standing there now.

I found the stamp shop on 11th st. A small place that had just about every rubber stamp imaginable. Picked out what I needed in just a few seconds, but spent a few minutes just looking around. will certainly be returning.

Three little stamps, much nicer than anything I would have time too make. These, along with two ink pads, black, and brown, made up my purchase. A nice walk home, where I spent the remainder of the day doing some organizing, ordering of supplies, and cleaning more plates.
