I received the sample books for Unwed Sailor : The Marionette and The Music Box today. They’re looking super hott. Hopefully the full shipment will be arriving in a couple of weeks, these have to be shipped by boat from Iceland. The kind folks at Oddi printing are doing the work. They’ve done most of the McSweeney’s books and were the only printers able to take on our specifications. I’ve also received the test pressing for Yume Bitsu : Good Vibes one-sided LP and The Six Parts Seven : The Attitudes of Collapse one-sided LP. Things are looking and sounding good. The artwork isn’t yet finished for Yume Bitsu, so that release will happen a little later, but The Six Parts Seven is right on target for June sometime. :::scott:::
