The Bodleian Library's 2016 call to letterpress printers to choose and print a Shakespeare sonnet led to Paul Kershaw cutting the capital letter L for me. The result can be seen in the ‘News’ section. The lino block had smouldered in my archive until a persistent breeze fanned it back into life.
There are twelve sonnets, each of which is set in a different typeface. Bound in quarter cloth by Ludlow Bookbinders using a hand-made paper from The Paper Foundation and paste patterned at Atelier GK Florence.
There are 50 copies
