About This Item
Minneapolis: Red Egypt Press, 1994. Edition limited to 20 copies plus 3 artist's proofs (this, copy no. 19), signed by David Rathman; 4to; 13 double leaves, illustrated with 9 three-color "intaglios printed from relief plates and lift-ground etchings with aquatint created and printed by Rathman; typography and letterpress printing by Philip Gallo at the Hermetic Press; the text is set in Studio and printed on Rives BFK; bound in grey cloth boards in exposed wire-binding by Jill Jevne after the wire-binding structure devised by Daniel Kelm; mounted color illustration on the upper cover; grey cloth clam shell box with printed paper label on spine. Fine. This is a remarkable collaboration between two of the Twin Cities' greatest book artists at work during the last quarter of the 20th century, and into the 21st: the printmaker David Rathman and the letterpress printer, Philip Gallo. The book was sold out immediately and even though these guys are my friends, this is the first time I've been able to offer a copy for sale in 25 years.
