Fairfax, CA: Jungle Garden Press, 1991. Dern, Marie. Oblong 24mo. (14)pp., accordion-fold. One of 55 copies designed, printed, and bound by Marie Dern at the Jungle Garden Press.

The initials are accompanied by humorous representations of the letters printed using numerous other types placed in colorful, innovative designs. For example, a yellow Caslon S is overprinted with text in Gill Sans that reads, "Caslon S is for sans serif. It is also for Eric Gill who was sans shorts." Fine in burgundy card wrappers, with "ABC" printed on the front and "XYZ" printed on the back.
