Here are the specs and prices for the Fine edition of ‘The Case of Death and Honey’ by Neil Gaiman and the companion book which inspired Neil to write his story, ‘The Adventure of the Creeping Man’ by Arthur Conan Doyle.
There will be an added slipcase available to hold both copies of these Hot Metal type letterpress books.
They are both bound in Hudson red cloth with extensive foil blocking on both.
I’ll be showing the oversized lettered edition of ‘The Case of Death and Honey next week.
