Rubber stamped in red ink DEAR JOHN (stamps from a children’s toy set) on one side and $ORRY (39 pt American Typewriter font) on the other. The book came about in response to a conversation with Angela Cavalieri about books and the forthcoming exhibition. Quite quickly the layers of meaning erupted. It was a matter of putting rubber stamp to card."
