Notes: "This edition of Prometheus Bound was designed, illustrated, and printed letterpress by Russell Maret. The body type was digitally composed in Quadraat, designed by Fred Smeijers, and the title lettering was designed by Russell Maret; both were printed from photopolymer plates on a Vandercook Universal III proof press. The images on the frontispiece and covers were drawn in smoke directly on the paper. The text and cover papers were made for the edition by Twinrocker Handmade Paper. The edition was bound by Judith Ivry in quarter goat skin and paper over boards. Fifty copies were printed during the surprisingly pleasant summer of 2007." -- Colophon
