Finally — in the second half of 2019 — the end of the long, long road to the release of our book* hoves into view and it’s now only about 7 weeks away.
A limited edition, hand-printed, Letterpress delight, will soon be available to buy from us. And in “The Chinese Year Of The Pig” as well. How about that for serendipitous timing?
*[ Less a book, more a portfolio of 10 perfectly printed pigs with hand set Letterpress texts impressed into fine Zerkall paper.]
Along with this masterpiece we’ll also make available a little notebook of recipes that perfectly complement these lovely old rare breeds.
In a bid to whet your buying appetite, here’s some shots of the book printing work in progress and the involved process that needed to be followed. I should emphasise — here and now and henceforth — that 98% of the necessary hard work was undertaken by Val Littlewood. I did the words. That’s about all; without her skills in linocutting, design (and InDesign), layout and printing, this book would never have happened.
If you’d like us to tell you when you can hand over your hard earned, folding stuff, in exchange for a signed copy of this wonder, just pop your email address into the box on the right and we’ll add you to our list of favourite people. [We’ll not use your address for anything else, we promise!]
