Sounds great, but how does it work? One of two ways:
Coach House founder and master printer Stan Bevington is this year’s recipient of the Robert R. Reid lifetime achievement award for excellence in book art. The award is given annually by the Alcuin Society, a non-profit dedicated to preserving and celebrating Canadian contributions to print culture.
Previous Robert R. Reid recipients include former Coach House typesetter and designer Glenn Goluska.
In a two-part interview with Coach House founder and master printer Stan Bevington, Nigel Beale, from the Biblio File podcast, delves into the intriguing combination of factors that inspired Bevington's passion for print culture and took Coach House to the forefront of Canadian book design.
The interview is both a journey through the history of technologies and typefaces, as well as an advice manual for collectors seeking rare pieces of Canadiana.
