316 Broadway; 9am-5pm Mon-Fri, from 10am Sat)
One of the old-
est letterpress print shops in the US, Hatch has been using old-school, hand-cut blocks to
print its bright, iconic posters since the early days of Vaudeville. The company has pro-
duced graphic ads and posters for almost every country star since, and they're still in
business.
If you don't have a special order in mind, you can buy reproductions of original Louis
Armstrong, Patsy Cline, Hank Williams and Bill Monroe publicity posters.
