Single sewn signature in green paper over boards with letterpress printed image of a lamp plugged into an electrical socket spanning pages 1 and 4 of cover and spine. Limited edition of 30 numbered copies. Colophon: "The typeface is Deepdene printed from photopolymer plates on Arches Text Wove. This essay was first published in the Sinister Compendium, Vol.3, No.1." Artist's statement: "The story, originally published in The Sinister Compendium about being an artist model, was of interest to me because of my own experience with modeling. What I find compelling about this story is the honesty about what a person can learn about themselves by taking their clothes off in front of strangers."
