In March 1992 I had to chance to visit Printed Matter in person. It was a bit overwhelming, so I made only a few small purchases.
The highlights were the smallest items, two little works by Rosemary Cowan; tiny complex works with immaculate paper skills.
The other items included Jacques Benoit's Seeds of Change and Dana Henry's A Portfolio of Vanishing Species.
