A Note of Thanks from Geoff Whitman

Hello everyone,

Thanks Michelle for the note! I’m so happy to be able to reply to the right group!!

I couldn’t agree more, although I haven’t yet seen the advance copy. I was blown away by being there on press for those few days and all I can say is it is something I will never forget – seeing all of you folks, people I didn’t know at all, working so hard to make a big beautiful book. My first book! I know it’ll never get cooler or better than this, but I hope to do more and wish it will be with lots of the same folks who produced this one!

The journey from being a college kid in Boston hearing Pearl Jam on the radio, to becoming a superfan, traveling with friends to see shows to then becoming the tour photographer and having that experience become even more insane by working on this book and now realizing it as a real thing thats going to be out in the world, is beyond mind boggling for me.  I cannot thank each of you enough for all your creativity and passion and energy in making this, what was once not even a dream of mine yet, become a reality.  I am so very proud of this book and all of you who produced it, making the images shine and documenting what is, by far, the COOLEST thing in my professional life.  This will serve as a great document of this historic tour and the process was just so enjoyable and exciting, I can’t really even articulate how much!

Everytime I look at this book, for the rest of my life, I will think of all of you and be eternally grateful and touched by what each of you contributed. I thank you all, from the bottom of my heart, and hope that our paths will cross again one day soon.

Kindest regards to you all,

Geoff

Press approval

Digital tritones

We are now producing digital duotone and tritone projects off our HP Indigo 12000. If you have an art project but do not need a lot of books, this beautiful alternative might well be less expensive.

New press online

We are excited to have completed installation of our new HP Indigo 12000. This press will replace our 7900 and has more colors (seven), high definition print heads for stochastic printing, and a 20″ x 29″ sheet size. We will stock Accent, Endurance, and Monadnock Astrolite for the new press.

The 12000 will allow us to print mid-sized jobs more economically than either a smaller Indigo or our large offset presses; and with absolutely top notch quality.
