If you have a Jewish grandfather, or just appreciate wacky grandpas, then you will love this hand-typeset book. The project is modeled after my Pop-pop's wallet, complete with rubberband closure to keep the cash from falling out. Inside you will find 18 hand-typeset and printed pages of phrases that my Pop-pop used over and over while I was growing up--some are quotes from old songs, some are original phrases only I have heard of, and all are guaranteed to make you chuckle. Inside the inner pocket, you will find a "receipt" with an original poem by my sister, Phoebe North, a Land-o-lakes pop-up card that "flashes" you (yes, my Pop-pop kept one of these in his wallet!), and a pop-up photo of my Pop-pop playfully smacking my Mom-mom in the tuchas.

Book in Entirely hand- printed, constructed and stictched, packaged in a clear acid-free sleeve. 24 hand typeset pages. Limited edition of 40 copies.
