Letterpressing

I've spent a week in a room at the bottom of uni with no windows, just lots of tiny lead letters and plenty of picas.

However, after setting the text some weeks ago now, I was finally ready to print and finished 1500 pages this morning. The idea is to print these condensed books that I've been chopping about and perforate and block them together so people can take a condensed War and Peace or maybe an Animal Farm away with them to read when they don't have much time.

It's by far the biggest print run I have done in letterpress. I think I'm going to quite miss working down there. Perhaps I might have to direct the next project that way too....
