Note
  • "Burake : Blessings was printed in an edition of fifty-two by letterpress, woodblock and photogravure. Peter Bogardus has made the text, woodblocks, and photographs. Zelalem Haile Michael is the interpreter in Ethiopia. The text is printed at Horton Tank Graphics by Art Larson using Monotype Perpetua cast by Michael Bixler. The woodblocks were drawn directly from Ge'ez scrolls and carved at Khelcom New York, where the copper-plate photogravures were printed. The blocks were printed by Takuji Hamanaka using powdered minerals. The paper is Iwano's kumohada mashi in a fore-edge fold"--Colophon.
