The edition is limited to four hundred numbered copies for sale and twenty-six lettered copies for complimentary distribution. Of this edition, forty of the numbered copies are accompanied by an extra suite of four lithographs. All copies of the book and the extra suite of prints are signed by the artist. The types are Craw Clarendon, Craw Clarendon Modern Bold, Lining Gothic, News Gothic, and Gloria, printed letterpress on French mouldmade Johannot paper. The lithographs were printed by Maurice Sanchez at Derrière L'Etoile Studio NYC. Those in the book are on a heavier weight of the same paper used for the text."--Colophon.
