MC Hyland’s DoubleCrossing
I just got the first two books from DoubleCross Press’s Single Sheet Series. They’re awesome. Double Cross is a new press that has emerged from the depths of MC Hyland. She makes all of the books herself on the letterpress monsters at the Minnesota Center for Book Arts. The Single Sheet Series is a set of books, each made from a single sheet of paper (which does not mean a single page). The first two are I go by Edgar Huntly now by Joshua Marie Wilkinson and Sarah Green’s Hotel Winter. With just these first two, MC is putting on a display of what you can make when you make books by hand. And Wilkinson’s book even includes a not-so-handy subway map (New York in the case of my copy).
Go subscribe to the Single Sheet Series here. $35 is a bargain for the work and fancy paper that go into this little books.
MC and I will be working on a project together later this year, which I’m getting excited about looking at what she can do with a letterpress.
