Additional notes:
Book Number 245 was imaged as a variation of Book 204. Rooms are basically the same; figures and props are changed. A new text was written on 14 and 15 July 2006. Presentation of the text on separate pages was suggested by Scott McCarney. The 1920s line cuts of staircases and woodwork are from collage files of Willyum Rowe. In 1979 I asked Greg Erf to make 4 x 5 negatives. These were scanned in July 2001, enlarged and altered in PhotoShop.

Font is Perpetua. The book is printed on Red River premium matte. Printer is an Epson Stylus Pro 7800.

Book 245 is hand bound by the artist using one of the single sheet Coptic sewings I devised for Smith's Sewing Single Sheets, Non-Adhesive Binding Volume IV. The book is an edition of 20 copies of which this is number 17.
