Contact seller5-star sellerPrinted in a limited edition of an unspecified number; 8vo, pp. [52]; original printed blue wrappers; fine. From the library of Kim Merker. Printed by Kay Amert (1947-2008), Director of the Typography Laboratory at the University of Iowa, and Howard Zimmon of the Seamark Press. Acknowledgements on the verso of the title page inc…lude "K. K. Merker, Leeta Berry, and Gum & Me Too." Kay established her own imprint, the Seamark Press, in 1967, while she was still an undergraduate at Iowa. It published its first, somewhat tentative, book in 1969. In all she printed 14 books over a space of 16 years. Kay's colophons (where they are present at all) are laconic, and the size of the edition is often unstated. In this title there is no colophon whatsoever. Where a number is given, it is usually between 200 and 300 copies. It appears, however, that the number of copies bound was often much smaller than the number printed. In some instances, part of the edition was cased by hand and part was sewn into soft covers - a fact never mentioned in the colophons.
