"The text is Monotype Plantin that was composed at The Stinehour Press and revised by Barbara Luck. The graffiti was supplied by Stephen Harvard. The text was printed with Susan Johanknecht and the plates with Tamara Schumann on Barcham Green's deWint. The images are a combination of relief etchings and pochoir. The boxes & covers were constructed by Jim BIcknell with cloth that was colored on the etching press"--Colophon.
"The edition is limited to one hundred and fifty copies"--Colophon.
