At long long last, I have crawled out from under my annual private letterpress hibernation and emerged with the 2009 "Edges of Bounty" letterpress linoleum calendar. The entire project is based on a miraculous book entitled "Edges of Bounty" that was published earlier this year by Heyday Books, written by William Emery, featuring the magnificent photographs of Scott Squire.
It is a California Central Valley, food themed calendar with thirteen original linoleum blocks, printed on delectable Canson papers in delectable hues. All quotations throughout the calendar are borrowed liberally from William's essays, set in Bell MT typeface, which were printed from polymer plates. Calendars are $45 each; $3 per calendar for shipping. 8" x 12.5" trim size, limited edition of 100 calendars.
Hoorah! Hoorah! Hoorah!
I will be tabling at a few holiday fairs over the next few weeks, selling calendars in person:
21 Grand/Art Murmur in Downtown Oakland:
Friday December 5th, 7-10 p.m.
San Francisco Center for the Book Holiday Fair
Friday (6-8) and Saturday (12-5), December 12th
Root Division Holiday Fair
Saturday, December 12th, 7-10 p.m.
Or just get in touch- I can swaddle up these muffins in no time and deliver them piping hot to your very own door!
