The BFK Rives cream paper is 15" x 19 1/2." The image size 11" x 14." Sixteen colors using fourteen screens were used to print 140 serigraphs in this edition, with 15 artist proofs and 3 printer proofs. Each print was numbered, signed and dated by Crumb in Paris this October.In 1984, Crumb illustrated the cover to a book store's catalog of rare books. I think that book store, Pepper & Stern, is still open in Santa Barbara, Ca.
In 2022, almost 40 years later, Crumb agreed to rework the drawing for a new etching edition. He removed the Pepper & Stern banner and drew in all the books that had been covered by it. It was Crumb's idea to name the edition The Bookworms.
