Aardvark Letterpress has been providing high quality letterpress printing, foil stamping, and other related services since 1968.

Aardvark Letterpress was established in 1968. We are a family business built by Luis Ocon and his sons, Brooks and Cary. Aardvark is located in the historic Artists’ Colony just west of Downtown Los Angeles across from historic MacArthur Park. We take tremendous pride in our work and everything we do is guaranteed. Please come visit us and check out our studio.

We would like to thank everyone who came to celebrate the life of Brooks this past weekend. It was truly heartwarming to see so many people in the shop sharing stories and eating the food he loved and listening to the music he played daily. He will live on in us here at Aardvark always🕊️

We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of our brother, friend, and colleague Brooks Ocon. It was a pleasure and a privilege to know him. His spirit lives on in the shop that he loved so much and spent the last 50 years working at. He will forever be missed and never be forgotten❤️

The International Printing Tour marches on! Where are Enzo and Jon headed to next? Why Germany🇩🇪 and Switzerland🇨🇭of course! They are going to be attending Gmund Paper’s Unfolded Festival, visit the historic paper mill in Basel, and see Johannes Gutenberg’s hometown of Mainz. Plus many other print shops and museums along the way. And don’t forget - from now on, every print we do for a trip will be offered to anyone who comes into the shop and asks for one (while supplies last)!

April 7 was Bill’s birthday! He is now 72 years young🎉🎉 Where would we all be without Bill? Probably standing in front of a Linotype or Heidelberg with tools in our hands, confusion in our heads, and tears in our eyes. He imparts his knowledge on us, but also provides us with many a laugh and countless stories. So in his honor, look at some photos of the old Pacific Electric Red Cars🚃🚃, load your pocket protector to the max, and take a trip out to the nearest Cracker Barrel.

Even when traveling for fun, taking on side quests to visit print history is a must! Recently Enzo was in Spain and visited a couple print shops and a museum in Palma de Mallorca and Madrid. Check out the story of , which has been operating since 1913 and is run by the fourth generation of the Aguiló family. Their work - both art and commercial - is stunning and an important part of Mallorca history!

For those who don’t know, our team is full of Dodgers fans! We’ve got lots of Dodgers and other baseball paraphernalia littered around the shop and there is much baseball talk going on day to day. That’s why Cary, Enzo, Brittany, and Derek were so excited to be able to see the Dodgers win Game 3 of the NLCS on Thursday! Now that they’ve won the pennant, let’s hope they go all the way and win another World Series! Go Dodgers!
