One of the more amazing things I saw at Codex was Rebecca Chamlee of Pie in the Sky Press‘s letterpress printed botanical prints. She says they are “letterpress botanical images of California native trees, collected from Corriganville Regional Park in Simi Valley, California, printed four-color in tight registration with photo polymer plates.” Below is one of them (see them all here). She also has a new book, Where Stucco Meets Chaparral that includes the botanical prints. On her blog she has several great posts about making and binding the book — be sure to check them out.
