About this Item

220 x 150 mm. (8 3/4 x 6"). [18] leaves. Green cloth spine, paste paper over boards. With eight hand-colored illustrations by Carol Blinn, including the half title. � A pristine copy. This charming volume is a love letter to the printed book, both in content and form. In this essay, originally published in "Matrix" in 2004, printer and farmer Bob Baris (fl. 1990s - present) relates vignettes of his life in his two professions, which might seem unrelated, but which to him are "as integral [to one another] as the pieces of cloth in an old Amish quilt." This essay is brought to life by the careful design and illustration of Carol Blinn, with delicate hand-colored illustrations and a very pleasant pasteboard binding with a subtle design and color gradation reminiscent of an evening landscape. The multi-talented Blinn has operated the Warwick Press since 1973, producing everything from wedding invitations and birth announcements to art books, books for children, and poetry.
