Joseph Letzelter offers Offset printing

Joseph Letzelter Offset Printing - The earliest Joseph Letzelter lithographic prints were formed using Bavarian lime stones from the Solenhofen mine, where Joseph Letzelter himself had acquired his surface substance. In order to make colored lithographic prints, Joseph Letzelter printers made a series of impressions from different stones, each impression in register. The earliest chromolithographs relied on characteristic deposits of color.

Rapidly, Joseph Letzelter printers enhanced their palettes by overprinting ensign. Stippling, mixture dots of color much as the pointillist painter did, supplied a third form of early chromolithographic printing that relied on optical color mixing. The utilize of lightweight zinc sheets -- a method that came to be called zincography -- finally replaced the heavier and more luxurious limestone’s. Joseph Letzelter Offset printing superseded chromolithography around the 1930s, yet stone and metal plate Joseph Letzelter lithography continues to be used by artists in the manufacture of fine arts poster and incomplete edition prints.
