let's revive the calling card

I'm all for taking on projects that are a little off of centre. So when Ted approached me with his, I was thrilled. Our initial conversations led me to believe that I'd be printing business cards for him. But when he presented his own design, I realized it was more of a calling card. No phone number, no address, no website. How refreshing! In an age of frenzied online social networking, it was a treat to contribute to the slow, old fashioned way of doing things. The Art of Manliness' post on the historical use of calling cards is a great read that just might make you want to order a set of your own.
