Sobre este artículo
This is a copy of the Lettered Issue of the first edition, thus one of only 26 copies printed on Zerkall Litho (a 210gram, exceptionally fine mouldmade paper, watermarked and with deckled edges) for presentation as a loose-leaf book of ten signatures. The book is wrapped in a coloured paper cover with a letterpress printed label and then presented in a handmade black cloth-covered clamshell box. Traditionally, such loose-leaf formats are especially attractive to printing-arts enthusiasts and to collectors who prefer to rebind their books in a bespoke style to suit a particular library or collection.

Designed and printed letterpress by Michael Caine for Ithys Press, Dublin.
