Additional notes:
"Aware that the many visitors we regularly host are opportunities missed, I came upon a splendid solution: to invite ‘guests’ to ‘sign’ a guest book cum artist book, by collaboration on one of its pages. I make paper specific to each ‘guest’ and they create something in response. I sent out 15 leaves of paper to each: when 10 participants returned their contributions, each received a set and I designed and produced an artist book with the remaining copies.

GuestBook 1998 is the first in this series, with visitors from 3 continents, with a range of ages, talents, etc."

Reference note:
In collaboration with 10 guests.

Contained in a gray wrap-around folder.
