Limited to an edition of 100 copies signed by the author and the artist, this excerpt was designed by Tracy L. Honn, printer at the Silver Buckle Press. Monotype Baskerville was used on Mohawk Superfine with paste printed covers of Twinrocker Simon's Green. The central folio is chochingami paper, and the green dyed Japanese paper is known as "pale green 339." The images were printed from magnesium blocks with assistance from the artist, Gretchen Hils.

Tracy Honn was a panelist in the 1995 3 Women Fine-Press Printers. The Silver Buckle Press was featured in the 1995 UWM Library exhibit The Contemporary Fine Press.
