I used to work at Casey Rubber Stamps in the East Village, the best shop in New York City. I was a very big fan of John and the store prior to working there. I begged him to give me a job at the store for over a year. Finally he gave in and I was thrilled! I worked there 7 days a week for a period which was a massive trip. John Casey is an idiot savant, very much a folk hero. He simultaneously drove me raving mad and taught me so much. I loved watching boxing with him on Saturday mornings while making stamps. John is truly the last of his kind in New York City. Beautiful handmade rubber stamps, go see go buy
