First Edition Signed
Wraps. Condition: Fine. First Edition. This is copy number 75 in an edition of 100. "This dynamic work is an exploration of the power of ten mighty, mighty women. Each composed her section about a specific aspect of power while developing imagery and original text. The text was composed, critiqued, edited and painstakingly typeset by hand. Our book was proudly printed in mainly 12 pt. Optima type on Mohawk Superfine, Soft White 80 lb. cover, with a smooth finish. Images were printed from linoleum blocks; acrylic gel medium occasionally added texture. To bind our codex, each section was sewn into an accordion fold." Signed by all ten contributors, as well as Professor Kitty Maryatt, who led the project as part of her Fall 2006 Typography Class at Scripps College in Claremont, California. Small octavo: [84] p. A fine copy.

First Edition Signed
Wraps. Condition: Fine. First Edition. This is copy number 77 in an edition of 102 copies. "Claire Van Vliet has visited Scripps College three times since 1980 as our Frederic W. Goudy Lecturer. Her inventive weaving techniques have served as inspiration to challenge traditional book content and form. We decided to honor her on her visit this semester by producing a woven book as the 40th book in our collaborative series. Twelve unique and colorful students as well as Professor Maryatt made connections through forceful weaving to bring Nous Tissons to life. Arches cover is a soft, flexible paper perfect for our book, and reflects our interwoven narratives. Stardream cover and text comprise our Jacquard anecdote and weavings as well as function to hold the book together. The title is presented on 12 pt. Centaur and 12 pt. Arrighi. Each individual line was typeset by hand and printed on Vandercook letterpresses by the diligent students. Paper weavings and linoleum cuts illustrate the narrative." Signed by all twelve contributors, as well as Professor Kitty Maryatt, who led the project as part of her Spring 2006 Typography Class at Scripps College in Claremont, California. Square 16mo. A fine copy.
