Letterpressed broadsheet






Letterpressed broadsheet printed with a flat-bed cylinder Vandercook proof press. The type used was 30pt Garamond Light and the paper used is grey BFK. The quote was taken from Cormac McCarthy's novel Blood Meridian.

       I carved the image of Death riding a horse from a linoleum block mounted on wood. This is the block after printing.

  1. Hi, would you mind if I used your images here for a Blood Meridian Twitter account I've started? It's called BloodMeridianTweets and all I do is quote from the novel and link to artwork for the novel. Thanks for considering it.
