{Hello, friend, you look familiar. We've meet before, no?}
In cahoots with Fallen by the wayside... is Just as the ship went down and other songs I don’t believe I know. This zine, this twin, it too features songsheet covers from America.
Yes, I got it / sung by Miss Lillie Beach; published by Will Rossiter. [c1892]
When your cash and friends are gone / by Felix McGlennon. [c1892]
Strangers / by Chas. K. Harris. [c1893]
Fill the vacant chair / words by M. Maurice; music by Ed. E. Treumann. [c1896]
Just as the ship went down / words by Edith Maida Lessing; music by Bernie Adler & Sidney Gibson. [c1912]
They didn't believe me / lyric by Herbert Reynolds; music by Jerome D. Kern. [c1914]
You don’t need me to tell you that I had a lot of fun ordering these found covers until the shuffle made a sentence I liked.
You can pick up a copy here in trade for a gold coin.

Traveller dear,
Louise and I make artists’ books, we make all sorts of things, and most usually we make things on paper. Collaboration comes naturally to us both; it is an enjoyable and wholly inspiring process that yields treasure not possible without the other. Working side-by-side, as we do from our home-based studio in Melbourne, Australia, it is a pattern we are familiar with; a path we are delighted to tread, seeing what new scenario evolves. Collaboration throws up the unexpected, and what is not to like about that?
With paper sufficient to cover the moon and sincerely yours,
Gracia Haby
