BURIN BOX AND BOARD.
by Forsberg, Lennart
This special edition is limited to forty copies of the 150 total. There are 39 original wood-engravings printed in the book. The special folder contains six signed and numbered prints (five of which are multi-colored) auditioned for this book by Forsberg and printed in his Stockholm studio. The texts include an introduction by Professor Nils G. Stenqvist from the catalogue of Forsberg's 2005 Stockholm Retrospective, a detailed memoir by Forsberg for this book, and a tale of a studio visit made by translator, Thorsten Sjolin, when collecting the blocks. The books are printed in Gill Sans type, the 14pt. using the rarely seen alternative letterforms cut in the 1930s. In Swedish and English. Prospectus laid in. An amazing and exciting book.
