All Souls On Deck – Mail Art
Here is JDJ letterpress printing a small title strip for the new project – but not in the letterpress shop -in my happy place, my library, which has been engulfed for weeks in a massive effort – 2600 cut-outs, 1400 gluings, and a whole lot of folding and wrangling to construct a set of round tarot-type art cards that are a care package for our times.
The set comes wrapped in a “decorative” origami envelope – this is the last big use of this black and white letterpress clean-up material for a long while – I promise!

Many thanks to the artists whose work was appropriated: David Larson, Gen Coon, Leslie Pruneau, Matt Cooper, Lily Dancy-Jones and John Justice. Gratitude to and inspiration from Sebastian Matthews and Jonathan Laurer, who recently sent me beautiful card sets.
