Handmade to Order
  • Prints: Each print is handmade to order, so no two prints are exactly the same. Ink & Keys uses high quality fade-resistant pigment-based inks to replicate a traditional turn-of-the-century typewriter style or 18th century style penmanship. Each print then undergoes a special multi-staged process for a realistic vintage look.

  • Unframed Prints: Unframed prints are affixed to a rigid backing board for easy mounting in your own frame. If you would like to be able to fold your print or omit the backing for any reason, please contact us for a custom order.

  • Frames: Every frame is handmade using the wood from already fallen trees in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Appalachia.
Framed Prints Include Glass

Please note, our pictures are taken without glass in the frame so you can pick up on the beautiful glare-free detail of the print, but be assured glass will be installed in each of our framed pieces before shipping.

Print Text

"i carry your heart with me(i carry it in


my heart)i am never without it(anywhere

i go you go,my dear;and whatever is done

by only me is your doing,my darling)

                                                      i fear

no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want

no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)

and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant

and whatever a sun will always sing is you



here is the deepest secret nobody knows

(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud

and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows

higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)

and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart



i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)"

The legible choice. Preserve the antique look without sacrificing text clarity.

Typewriter font is perfect for long texts or works that require specific text formatting or symbols.

Prints featuring our 20th Century Typewriter Font will look like they came right off the typewriter and secretly kept away for years.

Beverage Ring Stains

Selecting "No Stain" only refers to the rings stain in the bottom right corner of the print. The water stained edges will remain.

The minimalistic choice. Choosing "No Stain" will ensure the focus remains on the literary work without obstruction or distraction.

Add subtle character. Adding a coffee stain to your print will take it from regular print to an author's personal copy snatched from his desk.
