Call for Papers for Printing History Themed Issue: Printing Across Borders

Printing History 39 will spotlight print practices that engage critically with the theme of borders and border crossings. The topic can be approached literally and/or conceptually. We are particularly interested in articles that challenge, upend, or otherwise interrogate notions of national identity, imagined communities, and borderlands.

We invite interested researchers, professionals, and practitioners to share work engaged with the following topics:

  • Print production straddling geographic and/or figurative borders
  • Printed materials that resist xenophobia and challenge nationalist impulses
  • Activist print cultures: posters, broadsides, zines, ephemera
  • Anticolonial, radical, revolutionary printing
  • Print as political and cultural critique
  • Print practices of underresearched and/or marginalized groups and individuals

In general, Printing History follows the Chicago Manual of Style. An APHA style guide and further information for contributors can be downloaded herehttps://d3eb7xfyht02et.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/APHA_PH_styleguide.2023.pdf.

Submissions should be emailed to editor@printinghistory.orgmailto:editor@printingnhistory.org. If you have questions about this issue, the process, or the journal in general, do not hesitate to write. We do not solicit proposals for articles, but we are happy to discuss ideas and abstracts via email.

Submission deadline: June 12, 2026
