Scope and Contents
Hamady's use of found material includes varying papers and typefaces, seals and labels, old notebook covers, and green cloth from hospital uniforms. Several pages are creatively folded and refolded. The style of writing that involves documentation and a diary along with the inventive use of multiple typefaces, ornaments and layouts are defining examples of Hamady's style. Some pages have a rebus-like in design. This book is a printer's tour de force and one of the most outstanding in this series. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
