Chasing Paper
Claudia Cohen
A binder’s passion for paper: over 300 paper samples, all imaginatively combined and arranged. In broad categories, the papers include (to name a few): money, pre-20th century wallpaper, consumable packages, marbled, handmade, and labels, all varying in sizes from small scraps to full sheets. The book includes a one-page preface by Claudia explaining her passion for paper of all sorts, and providing some context for the selections included.
Each copy is laced into a heavy paper wrap (some white, some dark gray) featuring multi-color paper strips woven through the front board, and issued in a cloth-covered clamshell box.
Text pages set in Gill Sans and Perpetua types, and printed at Heavenly Monkey. Edition of 30 numbered and 5 lettered A.P. copies. Copies 1–5 issued with a companion volume containing particularly rare samples too limited in supply for inclusion in the full edition. 4to. HM Editions 2007
