The Weeping Cufflinks

This is the latest poetry publication from Tom Sharp and is described as "a capitalist folk-horror cautionary tale in the manner of a Jacobean pamphlet". It is designed and woodcut illustrated by Katherina Tudball. This is their third creative collaboration and a part of the Faery Fellers project.

Size is 230x145mm, portrait and is a 24pp self cover printed on our Redeem 100% Recycled 100gsm.

Below is centre spread. The binding is three hole sewn, in keeping with a style of binding that would have been familiar even in the 17th century ...before the invention of staples!

The below image shows the binding, using natural thread

Redeem 100% Recycled is a neutral white shade and is just perfect for this publication - many designers might have just used a cream paper, but this is just the right paper and really works superbly with the wonderful type and woodcut.
