The wood engravings were designed and cut by Nick Baute, and were printed directly from the blocks. Each book is signed by the artist, and is accompanied by a portfolio of the engravings printed on Johannot, a mouldmade paper, and signed by the artist. There were a total of 24 copies printed on Yale, a wove paper, and 12 copies were printed on Arthur's Prairie, a laid paper, all handmade at the Twinrocker paper mill."--Colophon.
