Ephemera : Altered Books : The World of the Snake

The World of the Snake

The World of the Snake uses text pages from the work of the same name by Hal H. Harrison. Additional colored Japanese and western papers, sewn with linen thread using a two-needle Coptic stitch, are used to form a whimsical serpent. The box uses binder’s board, embossed paper, dust jacket, and book cloth with the spine label laser-printed on Japanese paper.
