IX XI MMI….This heroically scaled book collects eight tumultuously emotional pen-and-ink images of the events of 9/11, first seen in issue 32 of World War 3 Illustrated. This work was featured in the group show “Reactions” at the Exit Art gallery in New York City in early 2002. The original drawings were subsequently purchased by the Library of Congress for its permanent collection

The book measures approximately 11 by 13 inches, with 22-inch pages spreads. The images are letterpress-printed from magnesium plates, with text in lead type, onto Rives heavyweight paper. The end sheets are of bllod-red Moriki, with laminated jet-black buckram covers. The folios are pamphlet-stitched. All production was overseen by Booklyn’s resident printer and book designer, Mark Wagner.
