Short creative nonfiction pieces are letterpress printed from handset type on the glassine. Colophon includes an abstract print made from the remnants of the final linoleum blocks. Front endpaper is wood veneer paper. Also included is a narrow booklet with a fictional modern folktale and a seventh reduction print of a Russian Olive tree.
