This was the last of the 2004-2009 series and Cristina, in Caracas, had dreamed for a year of getting one. Because #48 is all ebony, the expense of this wood and its crafting demands, it had taken me several years to make. It’s the second press to go to South America.
I put all twelve pages on the Halfwood Press Website and all the information you need to decide to add this special calendar to your collection. It's a keeper! Click here.
Cristina's press is included in the 12-page Halfwood Press Calendar I made, based on the 12 presses I sent in 2009--the last of the 2004-2009 series. You can see a first trial proof of the calendar on YouTube, left, and buy the calendar using PayPal:
Below is Cristina's page in the calendar.
I copied one of Cristina's prints from her page and pasted it into her page--it is called "Pablo."
I made this video showing the way I unpack and assemble this Mini. Be sure watch the end and you'll see Cristina herself in the video she sent back when the press arrived in Caracas. You can learn more about her design and art here: http://cristinamuller.blogspot.com/
