Yarborough
This is a book I made for a book arts class I took from Lucy Holtsnider at Colorado College. At the time, struggling to articulate the grief I felt after the bridge club where I learned to play the card game from community elders was struck by Covid early into the pandemic. Using a deck of cards and a few letterpress phrases, I hoped to use the language of bridge itself to describe the feeling of loss.
The covers are poker cards bound to a cover-weight text block with the Secret Belgian Binding. The text itself was letterpress printed on a Vandercook 219b.
