Alphabeta Concertina

A double-sided concertina alphabet book made up of 26 pop-up capital letters; first published in an edition of 1,000 copies, another 1,000 soon after and a revised version issued in 2007 to accompany the publication of its companions: Alphabeta Concertina Miniscule and Little But Often. An 'artwork, typographical experiment and feat of paper engineering', according to its artist and publisher and it's difficult to disagree.
