I flew to Vancouver over the weekend with Carol to attend the Alcuin Society wayzgoose at the Vancouver Public Library on Saturday. Heavenly Monkey, the press that printed the text and published my new book,
ODDBALLS, gave me space at their table. I set out some prints and some trade books of mine and some that I had illustrated. This was the first time
ODDBALLS was presented in public. A very good film called
Making Faces: Metal Type in the 21st Century, about Jim Rimmer and produced by Richard Kegler, was shown at Simon Fraser University the evening before the wayzgoose. There were wonderful people participating in and visiting this event. It was a fascinating weekend. Carol helped take some photos while I was busy at the table and we enjoyed going around and meeting some of the other participants.
