Ann Arbor Kerrytown Bookfest – September 13

kelseyDesktop01I’ll be doing printing demos on the little Kelsey platen press and showing some new journals I’ve been working on at my third Kerrytown Bookfest! I will have a printing die in the press and people can stop by to print a USPS postcard commemorating their experience at the bookfest.

The new journals may be used for sketching on blank or gridded pages.  Other books have ruled pages for writing. The text paper is Mohawk Superfine eggshell finish that has a really nice tooth. This is their Mohawk’s premium sheet and a big favorite for letterpress too.

Some logotype ideas for this program. It is the first nationwide Swiss Phd program in Nursing Education. Initially the logo incorporated Lausanne and Basel as the principal universities involved.

Lokta Paper Blank Journal

Detail of crocodilia mechanica skeletal structure.
Detail of crocodilia mechanica skeletal structure.

I made this book for my friend Odile. She is a professor of anatomy in Paris. The theme is a play on the word crocodile, and her name, Odile. This blank journal includes some drawings I made of steampunk mechanical crocodiles making this an anatomy reference of sorts, the Anatomia Crocodilia Mechanica.

The spine is Unryu and the cover is Lokta.
