The signed limited edition of Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut is presented in three states: Artist, Numbered and Lettered. The editions measure 6” x 9” and feature six full color illustrations by Julian De Narvaez as well as ten pen and ink vignettes which appear at the head of each chapter. The editions include a new introduction by Jess Walter and a frontispiece illustration by Edith Vonnegut.

The Numbered and Lettered editions are printed letterpress on Stonehenge cotton paper by Bradley Hutchinson on his Heidelberg cylinder press, and the artist edition is printed offset on Cougar Natural Vellum paper. All editions are printed in two color on the title and chapter pages. The vingettes in the Numbered and Lettered editions are printed letterpress with the text, and these editions are signed by Edith Vonnegut, Jess Walter and Julian De Narvaez. The Artist edition is signed by Julian De Narvaez.


The Numbered edition of 350 copies is a quarter goatskin binding with a duo-tone woven cotton cloth covering the boards. The cover features an inset label printed letterpress. Headcaps are sculpted and the headbands are handmade. Endsheets are Canson Mi-Teintes and the edition is housed in a slipcase covered with woven cloth and a paper label wrapping the spine and sides.

The edition is printed letterpress on Stonehenge cotton paper by Bradley Hutchinson on his Heidelberg cylinder press, and is handbound in the United Kingdom by Roger Grech. This edition is signed by Edith Vonnegut, Jess Walter and Julian De Narvaez.
