Of course you and Tom get a book--assuming I can get them printed in time.<br /><br />Speaking of Hitchcock titles, just watched Bill Murray's "<b>The Man WEho Knew Too Little</b>," and I gotta say, I was in hysterics. Think it got panned at the time (late 90's?), but damn, I thought it held up well.Davis Chinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16168954208679712542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19949517.post-47566835127416596982013-02-16T13:22:48.414-08:002013-02-16T13:22:48.414-08:00I want one too.I want one too.Tom Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11624247648988106639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19949517.post-82635872136509782382013-02-15T21:23:14.616-08:002013-02-15T21:23:14.616-08:00Marty.

Thought of you since we saw the Anthony Hopkin's Hitchcock together. Lot of the Hitchcock love of Vera Miles on display in TWM. Watch it and do some great sketches as you watch.MrGoodson2https://www.blogger.com/profile/02329640961760572269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19949517.post-48514533336982296912013-02-15T17:35:53.903-08:002013-02-15T17:35:53.903-08:00I want one

Yes, I was unhappy with the saturation of my blacks with Lulu but that's really a problem on my end, as I understand it. <br /><br />Just gonna print up 100 and see what the response is. Hopefully won't just sit in a box in the garage.Davis Chinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16168954208679712542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19949517.post-66643554487858690242013-02-15T11:38:04.337-08:002013-02-15T11:38:04.337-08:00But, the whole PDF shouldn't be larger than 70...But, the whole PDF shouldn't be larger than 700 meg.

I am working with a nearby print shop on this...the original idea was to reproduce the look of one of my spiral-bound cardboard Muji sketchbooks, but I'm hitting some difficulties. With luck I'll be able to get something decent--and affordable! (shooting for $12 bucks a copy).Davis Chinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16168954208679712542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19949517.post-54603254659057810742013-02-13T06:40:21.279-08:002013-02-13T06:40:21.279-08:00How many pages is your book going to be Marty?How many pages is your book going to be Marty?Tom Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11624247648988106639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19949517.post-75311418053728627712013-02-12T20:22:59.161-08:002013-02-12T20:22:59.161-08:00Ha!
