Robert Hetherington Hand and Eye printing a page of the Artist’s edition of ‘The Case of Death and Honey’. The same metal type is used for the Numbered and Fine editions too. The handmade paper of the Artist’s edition has deckle edges on all four sides (and is a larger page size, with a slightly different design) so it has to be printed by hand on a proofing press. The other editions will be printed on the Hand and Eye Heidelberg cylinder press.
Here you can see Robert inking up the press, locking up a forme with a quoin key and taking a pull!
