To Be Sorted 3

The third book in this series is now in the early stages of production. I have gathered the majority of the 260 engravings that I will need to make the 26 sets of random prints, lettered A – Z, which will raise money for the Trussell Trust and Medecins Sans Frontieres. I am designing a simple title engraving. The other text will be printed using an Adana 8×5. Once again, the text will be printed from photopolymer plates produced by the amazing (and speedy) Lyme Bay Press!

Watch this space for further news. Here is the box of engravings ready to trim to a uniform size:

To Be Sorted 2 is out of print. Many thanks to all who supported this project.

Look out for a follow up planned in 2025

Nocturnal Specials have now all sold out. I have moved the description and photos to the archive page.

Nocturnal Specials

After a lengthy delay while I was working on commissions for other presses, the 26 specials of “Nocturnal” have finally been bound. These have been printed on larger paper (approximately 13 x 18cm) and casebound with a black cloth spine, a cover paper of marbled paper from Payhembury Papers, and a wood engraved label. Each book has a paper folder pasted onto the back endpaper with a sheet of text and four signed proofs of the following engravings from the book: Badger, Nightjar, Hedgehog and Barn Owl. The specials are lettered A – Z.

This photograph shows a special, together with the contents of the folder, and one of the smaller regular copies in its card covers and marbled paper wrapper.

I am currently contacting all those who have expressed an interest in buying a special. After this, I will offer them for general sale. If you would like to enquire about buying one, please contact me at andyenglish@btinternet.com
