coming at me via the usps

The other day this arrived for me from a used bookseller:



And I've had my face buried in it since then. Matisse continues to be such an inspiration which I see so clearly as I look back through the pieces I've posted about!

My platen press also made it to me across the country and, with some heavy lifting, up into our apt. So I've also been buried in catalogs offering all sorts of press and printing accessories, some of which have these fantastic names - a chase, the gooseneck, quoins, furniture and slugs!
