Notes:

Title from colophon. "Forty copies were printed, thirty of which are for sale"--Colophon. "The typeface used throughout most of Orpheus is Lirico, in its Roman & Italic forms and light weights ... The Greek typeface is Neohellenic ... All of the text was letterpress printed from photopolymer plates on [a] Vandercook 219. The large section of color on the covers and the opening and closing pages of the book were printed from collagraph blocks made with a brush texture in acrylic gel medium. The covers were hand-painted with acrylic gesso and the pages were painted with acrylic ink wash"--Colophon. "[The book] was written by the poet & letterpress printer Alan Loney. This book was designed and printed by Aaron Cohick at the Press at Colorado College during the end of 2012 and beginning of 2013. Two student apprentices at the Press, Taryn "Centauryn' Wiens and John "John Baskerville" Christie, assisted in the binding and hand coloring"--Colophon."
