Last year, John Denny, owner-operator of Puriri Press, Auckland, completed the hand-setting of poems by local poet Peter Olds at the Otakou Press Room in the University Library (as part of our Printer in Residence programme). The colourful 'Skew-Whiff' was the result, with 8 images local artist Kathryn Madill. We have a few left for sale, so please contact me if you are interested in buying one.
Come mid-September, the printing presses at the Otakou Press room will be pumping away again. Dr John Holmes, owner-operator of his own Frayed Frisket Press, will be printing poems by poet Kevin Cunningham. The poems have been selected by Bill Manhire (University of Victoria, Wellington), who also offers an introduction. As usual, the print run will be only 100 copies.
