Wild Delaware

update - Wild Delaware is now printed and in the bindery.  If you have ordered Wild Delaware you should be receiving your copy(s) in early November along with the four free prints.  Here’s a photograph of your intrepid photographer and the cover on top of Victoria Peak in Hong Kong.  

It is Wednesday afternoon (September 17th) in China and more than half of Wild Delaware is now printed. The balance of the pages and the cover and dust jacket will be done by noon tomorrow. I chose this printer based on their reputation for delivering the finest quality coffee table books and I have to say I am not disappointed. We brought a beautiful set of color proofs with us to the printer and we have been able to not only match the color but improve the color on press with every sheet.Wild Delaware is being printed on a huge, new Heildelberg four-color, computer controlled, state-of-the-art press. Eight pages print on each side of a sheet of paper that fold down to make 16-page signatures. Below is a press sheet showing eight pages (one side of a 16-page signature).  The printing may look a little strange with parts of different photographs touching other photographs but this sheet - when printed on both sides - will fold down to 16 pages.If you have ordered copies of Wild Delaware you are in for a treat.  The colors and sharpness are amazing.  If you have not ordered any copies of Wild Delaware yet there are still signed and numbered books available that include the four free prints!  Order soon to be sure to get one of the first 1,000 signed and numbered books.
