The Rhyme Maidens by Neil Gaiman, Engravings by George A. Walker
Hand made broadside 12.5" x 16". These hand-printed broadsheets were made in celebration of the wedding of Neil Gaiman and Amanda Palmer. The poem was written by Neil Gaiman about the night before their wedding. Printed in a limited edition of 250. The typefaces used are Granjon, Dyer, Willow and You Murderer. The embossing was done from polymer plates that were mounted type high and then squeezed through the press by hand. The paper is acid free 250 gm archival Rising Stonehenge. The wood engravings are incised on end grain maple and were made by George A. Walker who also designed and hand-printed the whole project on his Vandercook SP15 proof press in the winter of 2012. Hand signed by artist George A. Walker in addition to Neil Gaiman. So many little extras went into this production. Neil and Amanda's name are embossed at the bottom, with Neil's original hand written signature. The whole right side is blind embossed. The logo is embossed on the bottom right. The colophon is printed on the back. Hand printed on handmade paper.
