Jodi Bos of In Any Event introduced me to edge printing. One of the most beautiful ways to finish a piece of collateral I’ve seen in a long time.

The process of edging dates back to the 1450s and was used to prevent dust falling into the pages of books. It conjures up memories of antiquated books and respectful publications {like thesauruses and bibles}. The process of edging has evolved for modern-day applications…but the effect is just as special.
