A gentleman's or lady's visiting card used to be de rigueur in the past; whereas even today, in the Internet Age, they survive in the form of a business card.
Traditionally, visiting cards have been in differing sizes for men and women and I gather that the classic man's size was 3" x 1½".
They were very simply laid out, with merely the name in the centre, often the address at the bottom left, and one's club to the bottom right.
I happen to think that they still serve a useful purpose.
Cognisant of this I searched the Internet for printers who specialize in such cards; and I discovered Blush Publishing, based in Flintshire.
Nobody in Northern Ireland seems to specialize in the kind of products that Blush sells.
I contacted two in County Down and might I suggest that they have a look at the Blush web pages.
They use heavy cotton paper and the cards are printed using the letterpress method with vintage Heidelberg presses.
I can apprise you that I am delighted with my new visiting cards, which is why I'm expressing my appreciation in this article.
