While in Nashville interviewing a family for an upcoming Cookie story, I had a few hours left over to scope out the city. The couple told me to forget the Grand Ole Opry—hit Hatch Show Print instead. One of the oldest letterpress printmakers in the country (it was founded in the late 1800s), Hatch has created beautiful and quirky concert posters over the years. The current shop, which looks like it's been around since the 1800s (it hasn't), is filled to the rafters with inky letters and posters. When business is quiet, the staff will give kids a tour of the operation—and the prints, many of which are less than $20, make great souvenirs. If you can't make it to Nashville, Hatch sells prints online, too.
