From left to right, top to bottom:
“how wrong I have been”
“lift times”
These two letters were crosswrit in addition to being printed on both sides of a translucent sheet of gampi, then folded and chine colled to a piece of BFK Rives.
“dear kmb (pt. 1)”
“dear kmb (pt. 2)”
These letters were printed on both sides of a sheet of translucent gampi, and chine colled without a fold onto BFK Rives. Parts of the letter have been self-redacted, complicating the visible areas of text.
