Swan Song lettered

Description from Suntup Website

The Suntup edition of Swan Song by Robert McCammon 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 Ed Binkley, as well as a new exclusive introduction by the author. Also included are fourteen black & white section drawings charting the movement of Swan’s journey in the story. The half title, title, contents and chapter pages are printed with an additional spot color.

Interior design & typography is by award-winning designer Jason Dewinetz. The text type is Albertan, designed by Jim Rimmer. Originally cut and cast as a new metal type by Rimmer himself, Albertan was later developed and expanded into a multi-weight OpenType digital font (Canada Type). The editions are printed by offset lithography on Cougar Natural and Mohawk Via Laid papers and all states are signed by the author & artist.

The Lettered edition is limited to 26 copies and is a full goatskin binding with a tight joint and a blocked cover. The leather is from the Alran Tannery in France and is produced in a labor intensive 23-step process which takes 4 weeks to finish. It has a unique natural and rustic grain. Founded in 1903 in the South of Tarn and set in the beautiful surroundings of the “Montagne Noire”, the tannery has developed a vast expertise in the tanning of goat skins.

Head & tail bands are leather and endsheets are handmade Amate Bark paper, made in Mexico in the ancient tradition of the Otomi Indians. The paper is created from the bark of the amate wild fig tree, the nettle tree and the mulberry.

The edition is printed on Mohawk Via Laid and is published in two volumes with a tipped in fold-out of the Classic edition dust jacket art. It is housed in a clamshell enclosure covered in Dubletta cloth with velour lined floors and is signed by Robert McCammon & Ed Binkley.
