Description from Suntup Website


Outlander by Diana Gabaldon is presented in three states: Classic, Numbered and Lettered. The editions measure 6” x 9” and feature ten full color illustrations by award-winning artist Charles Young Walls, as well as a new introduction by the author and an afterword by Sam Heughan. Also included is a bonus essay, “The Shape of Things” by Diana Gabaldon, originally published in the 20th anniversary edition.


The book is set in Miller Text and Zapf Civilité by Michael Babcock in Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts, with the Numbered & Lettered states printed letterpress by Norman Clayton on a Heidelberg Cylinder in Ojai, California, and the Classic edition printed by offset lithography.


The illustrations in the Numbered & Lettered states are printed giclée on Hahnemühle Bugra and are tipped in. The editions are printed on Cougar Natural, Mohawk Via Laid and mouldmade Hahnemühle Ingres.


The Lettered edition is limited to 26 copies and is Bradel bound by hand with tartan covered boards and a goatskin spine with raised bands. The cover fabric is produced by Lochcarron of Scotland, the world’s leading manufacturer of tartan and is woven using 100% Pure British New Wool. Endsheets are hand marbled for this edition and head & tail bands are hand woven in two colors of silk thread.


The marbled paper design is known as Gloster, named after the historic house in County Offaly in Ireland, which was built in the early 1700s. The paints used in the marbled papers are made by hand from pigments used in the period. Each sheet was individually hand made in the traditional manner in use at the time by renowned marbler Iris Nevins in Johnsonburg, New Jersey, who has been making fine quality traditional style hand-marbled papers since 1978.


The edition is printed letterpress on mouldmade Hahnemühle Ingres and is published in two volumes with a tipped in fold-out of the Classic edition dust jacket art. It is housed in a cloth-covered clamshell enclosure with velour lined trays, and is signed by Diana Gabaldon, Sam Heughan and Charles Young Walls.
