Leather Bound "Kentucky 120" Art Book

Ed Lawrence put together a collection of 120 photographs, each one taken from one of the 120 counties in KY.  He began a kickstarter campaign to gather the funds to publish it and wanted to offer hand-bound editions for those who pledged over a certain amount.  We ended up creating five limited editions of his photographs that were printed on archival, handmade paper and then hand-bound to reclaimed leather.  The closures were created by another artist and have the recipient's names on them.   While I was only involved with the hand-bound book aspect of this project, it was still quite an undertaking.  I have to say that these are the thickest books I have bound so far.  I'm incredibly pleased with how they turned out.   While these handbound books were a limited edition, the published copies of Kentucky 120 should be available in March.  They will be available at Morris Book Shop in Lexington, KY among other places.  You can contact Ed Lawrence for more details at edlawrencephotography@gmail.com.
