Finalising Concertina

I have realised that the issue with the concertina book is that it is too long to be screen printed. Infact, there are A0 screens, but the issue is that I cannot find A0 length stock to print on. The only other alternative is to stick two bits of paper together, which will create an obvious seam and will look much less professional. The best solution for this is to digital print the inside and hand craft the rest of the books.



This is the way that the books will be put together, and below is the actual designs for the books.


 The issue with digital printing these is the cost, which is £14 per A0, meaning that I can only really justify printing one. the page will fit 6 books, meaning that I have to sell each for at least £3 to cover the cost of the print. Digital printing is really not an ideal solution.

I have picked the best 3 designs of the 4 and printed 2 of each. The limited edition of the books may make them more valuable and more desirable.
