The Society of Revisionist Typographers would like to give a brief introduction to the history of our founding and how we established a letterpress printing business in this day and age. Illustrated with examples of our work and the collection of printing equipment we use day-to-day.

The Society of Revisionist Typographers consists of Messrs Tom Boulton and Theo Wang. Having met and graduated from the London College of Printing (now Communication), we established SORT with the aim to preserve and revive the traditional forms of print-based graphic design that are often threatened with obsolescence through practice and application. We design and produce our own product range, available in retailers including Liberty, Tate, Southbank Centre & Magma. We have also worked on commissions with a number of designers, artists and individuals.
