Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal lettered edition

Description from Suntup Website

The Suntup edition of Lamb is presented in three states: Classic, Numbered, and Lettered. The edition measures 6” x 9” and features eleven color illustrations by award-winning artist Bill Carman as well as a new introduction by Christopher Moore. Also included are two afterwords by the author, from the 2022 first edition and the 2007 Special Gift Edition. The text pages are set in Trajanus types and P22 Civilité, and are printed by offset lithography on Cougar Vellum and Mohawk Via Laid papers. Typographic design is by award-wining designer Misha Beletsky.

The Lettered edition is limited to 26 copies and is a medieval style binding, with a full leather cover in rich tan calfskin from Harmatan and Oakridge. The cover is embellished with a central clasp, and is blind tooled using a triple line roll, single lines, and medieval style central decorative motifs. Raised bands cross the spine and the endbands are hand sewn with striped linen thread. Endsheets are cream laid paper.

The medieval-style binding pays homage not to the time in which the story is set, but to the way sacred texts about that era were later preserved and revered. Echoing the bindings of illuminated Gospels and devotional books from the Middle Ages, the design reflects the spiritual weight and historical legacy of Joshua’s story

The book is housed in a custom wooden enclosure made with precision butt-joint construction and a hinged lid. The box is finished in a rich stain which brings out the natural grain and character of the wood. The result is a warm, refined presentation that echoes the earthy tones of the book’s binding. It is printed on Mohawk Via Laid and signed by Christopher Moore and Bill Carman. The edition is bound by hand by Lorna McCurdy in Berkshire, United Kingdom.
