I'm looking to find a place that can do raised printing business cards
in Manhattan with turnaround time of 24 hours.

Hi non_us_affiliate_net-ga,

By raised printing, I am assuming that you mean thermography:

East Side Copy center can do this for you. They have on-site
thermography. You would need to place your order by about 1pm Monday -
Thursday to get 24 hr. turn around.

As a sample quote, 500 cards on 80lb white stock would be $93.

East Side Copy Center
http://www.eastsidecopy.com/
15 E 13th St
New York, NY
(212) 807-0465

Here is a link to a google map with their online contact info:

detailed answer to your question. Please don't hesitate to ask for a
clarification, I want you to be completely satisfied.

Hello-

Thanks for your answer. I just called East Side Copy and they said
they cannot provide theservice in 24 hours but rather it takes 2 days.
They said if we brought it in on Monday, it could be ready by around
Wednesday. Did you call them or was that info posted on their web
site?

The hope is really that we could drop off a simple request on Saturday
and have 250 cards by Monday.

Hi,

I called and spoke with them on the phone this afternoon. They
indicated that Monday through Thursday a 24 hour turn-around was
possible, on orders of 500.

I am disappointed that they changed their tune when you called. I am
happy to follow-up on Monday when they re-open. Perhaps your request
for only 250 cards was the issue.

I can attempt to locate another firm with in-house thermography.
However, I am quite certain based upon the many firms that I spoke
with that you will not be able to find a Manhattan based firm that
will do this on a weekend. Your question did not expire until the 4th
of December, so it was not clear that you wanted the cards to be
printed this weekend.
