One of the natural avenues for letterpress and other printmaking techniques is of course in the bookmaking arts. Below is my first small book which contains a poem by Charles Bukowski, Air and Light and Time and Space, along with 10 etchings depicting Bukowski. It is printed on a 60 inch-long strip of BFK Rives paper, has a removable spine and measures 7 x 5 inches.
