Theresa sent this snapshot of No. 22 inside her Tonsu chest.
Mini Halfwood Press No. 22
Specifications: Made in 2005. Mariner Halfwood Press. Serial No. 60022. Cherry, ipe, steel, plastic, brass.
Artist's comment: When Portland, OR artist Theresa Redinger ordered her Mini Halfwood Press, she used an envelope from Portland's Blackfish Gallery. Having shown at that gallery once, I included in the packing a Blackfish Edition of my Cyanotype poster (below). She bought the only Mini I made with cherry wood and a short base, and the first one with the bench clamp. As it was damaged in shipment, Theresa sent it back for repair -- and with it some packing advice. Later she sent me a snapshot of her Mini tucked in her Tonsu chest (above).
The poster from the Blackfish Gallery show.
