June 11th, 1900
Anyone want to guess what this is? No? OK, I’ll tell you. That right there is every single sheet of paper for every single cover for the remainder of The Life & Times of Baby Otto Zeplin. Every single one, from volume two right on through ten. I went to my favorite paper store to buy the coverstock for the current volume, and wouldn’t you know it, the paper’s been discontinued! After some searching, these five lovely purple-wrapped packages were found in a warehouse in Colorado, so I snapped them right up. It’s weird because when you look at it, it doesn’t really look like that much paper, but it’s actually more than I’ll need for the minimum 2,700 covers for the rest of the series. Volume one is getting nearer to selling out its initial run of 300, so I may need that extra paper for an extended edition.
