The remainder series

Recent releases in the remainder series include works by Jim Andrews, Lyn Coffin, Drew Kunz, Jim Leftwich, Bill Shively, Margareta Waterman, Ross Priddle, Michael McCafferty, Marton Koppany, Donato Mancini, Tom Clark, Leane J., Hung Tu, Randy Stark, David-Baptiste Chirot, and others.

The remainder series is a project being completed in the spirit of St. Vincent de Paul’s, Goodwill’s, and Salvation Army’s thrift-store aesthetics. The basic idea is to use our paper stock for small editions of poetry and art. The paper for our first remainder series is in various weights and colors though all of it is letter size (8.5” x 11”, 216mm x 279mm). Printed work is issued in numbered editions of 25 or less, 40% of which goes to the poet or artist. While they last, these ordinary prints will be available for $6 a copy, which doesn’t include postage and handling, or $7, which does, payable to

Seattle’s Wessel & Lieberman Books (www.wlbooks.com) has a standing order for three copies of all work produced in the remainder series. Those of you who live in Seattle can stop by the bookstore in Pioneer Square to see the actual prints, which are nicely different in some ways from the pdf versions. Interesting are the differences between print and electronic reproductions, and a working title for the remainder series could have been, to paraphrase an important Walter Benjamin title: The Work of Reproduction in an Age of Technological Art.
