Mindy Belloff of Intima Press in New York City has produced an re-creation of the 1777 Goddard Declaration of Independence with the techniques of its day: set one letter at a time, printed letterpress on period-style paper. (Mary Katherine Goddard — 1738 – 1816 — was an early American publisher and the first American postmistress. She was also the first to print the Declaration of Independence with the names of the signatories.) There’s a interview with Belloff about printing the recreation and setting the type on Felt & Wired.
