"Heidi and Jane: A Curious Case" is a new take on the Robert Louis Stevenson's classic, "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde: A Strange Case". The original binding design was constructed with turquoise, handmade paper covers. Text and images were letterpress printed from photopolymer plates on a Vandercook #4 proof press in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. The book unfolds so that the reader first encounters a pamphlet containing the story of Jane, a young overachiever who discovers a way to be two little girls instead of just one. The book then unfolds to reveal two decks of removable cards, with captioned illustrations of Heidi/Jane's shenanigans by comic book artists Minty Lewis and Damien Jay, Adam Weinstein and Emily Tipps. Printed in 2008 in an edition of 35. Out of print.
