I'm in charge of a rubber stamps shop here in Venezuela. God bless all those who keep this art alive.

Im so selfish at times. My world, if you can get that, can be so small, yet some random pronouncement reminds that there are worlds without number. Atlas Obscura is taking me on a magic carpet ride right now. Thank you and your guest.

I would absolutely love to have a full set of rubber stamps made specifically for making D&D maps! Walls, doors, terrain, objects, etc etc.

@gracenote100 3 года назад

Oh to be a New Yorker! A whole shop dedicated to nothing but beautiful stamps. I'd drop by all the time because I loooove using stamps in my crafting projects.

Amazing! I just love "old school" artistry. I'm a paper crafter and really admire this hands on look, thank you!

My grandfather owned a small print shop in Pa. God, I miss that place. I would love to visit this little, rubber-stamp shop in NY.

Awww😢 I feel for small business owners like this. I hope they allow them to open as soon as possible after this COVID-10 craziness, I will definitely go and visit and get some rubber stamps.

I am a Rubber Stamp maker by profession. It is a family business. I can relate to this video.

I swear I have the fountain pen stamp! God bless John, thank you and all the others for so many enjoyable years of stamping and paper arts! Please don't stop!

Beautiful wood mounted rubber stamps store. I hope I will be able to shop there someday.

Wonderful. Reminds me of my son's short film about the last cash register repair shop in Manhattan. Great job fellas.

@bethheller7734 2 года назад

So beautiful. Plan to visit this shop this week!

I love using rubber stamps! What a great store, sure wish i could visit. Thank-you Dear One*

The rubber stamp shop here in Burbank, CA closed at least 5 years ago. The decades old flag shop closed just a couple months ago. The late owner and her business would've been a great choice for an A.O. vid. These old school shops are so special.

Absolutely fascinating! I'd SO love to visit and pick out a few stamps there to purchase! Thanks for sharing, I loved it. :) Such strange times we are in. Hang in there, Casey Rubber Stamps!

@DaxxLexx 3 года назад

Very lovely video, so many small shops must be facing a lot uncertainty right now.

This is a great little shop. What does John think about the silicone stamps that don't use a wood mounting block?

@adriana2567 3 года назад

Great

@intuneorange 3 года назад

You know if everybody were to go out and buy $20 worth of stamps we could keep the Post Office around .

@karmaappleoriginal Год назад

The shop's website is live, so presumably they are still open for business.

@nowandaround312 2 года назад

The music was nice but I don't see why they couldn't have just interviewed him on the phone or on Zoom/Facetime/whatever. I would have liked to hear his story.

He makes his living off of copyright infringement?

@GreyHazRoot 3 года назад

@AlphaGeekgirl 3 года назад

You mean like Amazon does? I think the pissy amount that he makes is about .00000125% of what Amazon makes from copyright infringement. So what’s your point? Perhaps you can pick on eBay, Kickstarter or Etsy? Do you have definitive proof that he is infringing copyright anyway?

You’re such a kind person. Do you kick dogs and cats when they are in your way and tell the elderly to just die already because they are taking up too much space?
