The design on this edition variee of 5 books is created from some of my mother's NSW education department's paperwork from the 1970s.
It's awesomely official. All in passive tone. The language is circumlocutive and overly formal.
She filled it out by hand and made a handwritten copy.
The replies from the department are typewritten.
I played with the scanned versions in photoshop and printed on 80gsm orange paper.
Made 16 x 12 cm concertinas. I punched some holes (because I'm a one for seeing through things).
The 5 books make a stack that looks pretty cool.
I later added a further 14 books to the edition variee. Details here.
