The book was made from FSC and Rainforest Alliance certified sustainably forested paper. It’s perfect bound and the cover has a matte finish. First edition of 400 copies. It was made in Michigan by the good people at the woman-owned print house, McNaughton & Gunn. Our point of contact, who guided us through this process, prefers her music on vinyl, media on paper, and her holiday chili meatless.

The cassettes were made with 120 minute BASF tape reels.
The shells were pad printed and the o-cards were off-set printed.
First edition limited to 100 copies.

Purchase includes .mp3 / .flac / .alac digital download of the 120 minute audio compilation. If you have a preference to have this in your Bandcamp library, drop us a line after you purchase your book and we'll email you a download code.
