PLEASE NOTE: Using the letterpress process (1950 hand-operated technology and hand mixed ink) and working in conjunction with the poet, there may be slight variations and uniqueness to the end products. Small variations in color may occur - and we hope you can revel in the uniqueness of your print with this in mind.
