Colophon - the book

With just 36 days to go before it launches, Colophon2007 is fast approaching. Book your tickets here.

Meanwhile, here's a first glimpse of the book 'We Love Magazines', being published to coincide with Colophon2007. Doing so breaks my unwritten rule about not featuring my own work/work from John Brown here but as this is of general interest to the magazine-obsessed I claim an amnesty.

The book is an in-depth look at the state of the magzine industry, and features essays by Stephen Armstrong, Professor Samir Husni and Andrew Losowsky, along with special contributions from the ten featured magazines at Colophon2007, plus a directory of over 1200 independent magazines. Pre-order a copy here.

And in case you're wondering, the rabbit figure on the cover is one of ten characters commissioned from illustrator Mio Matsumoto and reproduced in foil block on the actual cover.
