TROUT

HANDMADE BOOK

TROUT was the fourth of six edition portfolios printed at the Thirty-Eight Street Studio in New York City.  A collaboration between Scott Duce and Robin Starbuck.  This edition incorporated a poem by Robin Starbuck and drawings, design, and construction of handmade books by Scott Duce.  The books were dedicated in memory to Scott’s father Donald F. Duce, 1917-2007, an avid fisherman.

 

Poem        Flies only satisfy in the spring

                    While winds wail

                    And ice quiets my song
