These booklets are artworks, handmade by the Dutch artist and Dylan fan Maarten Giltay Veth.
Maarten is doing all the work himself. He has various types of letters and numbers, from different materials, wooden letters and lead letters, in various different sizes and typefaces. He does the typesetting himself, all by hand, and prints on his Korrex Stuttgart Press in his studio, page for page, colour for colour.
Every side of every page is printed separately on high quality thick paper, and the binding is done by hand.
Thank you to Peter Oudejans, Jürgen Wasser and especially to Hans Bosch, for their help with the images and information on this page.

This very small booklet (5,5 x 8 cm) has only 8 pages; hand-printed, limited to 25 hand-numbered copies, it has not been on the market but was only privately circulated as a present to Maarten's friends. The backdrop used was a few leftover sheets from the 2024 SUBTERRANEAN HOMESICK BLUES project, so the 25 copies are all different. A special thank you to Hans Bosch and Maarten Giltay Veth for this item.
