Duthie’s Bookmarks is issued in a first printing of 50 copies (8.5 x 11 inches, printed digitally on Curtis cream paper). The copies have been sewn and cased by hand, in quarter cloth with marbled paper sides.


Since the original edition of 50 copies sold out promptly, we proceeded with a very limited second edition printing of 10 copies in 2010. These copies have now been sold out. For more information, see our blog post here.
