"Alphabet broadsides. This is an on-going broadside project begun in 2006 to explore some of the possible variations in the relationship between a large letterform used within a confined space and a poem. Three self-imposed limitations are at play. Every broadside will be the same size, the letterform will not be enlarged or reduced from its original size, and the edition size will remain the same. Variations will emerge in type style and size, type of paper, and color. Each edition consists of 75 signed and numbered copies. All are 11 x 17 inches. They are $75 apiece."--Ninja Press website.
