This is probably my favourite KZbin video ever. So interesting to hear about the creation of such beautiful books. Curious king books are so much better than other "fine press books" the art work, love and heart that goes into every book just shines out from them. To hear Anthony speak about them just makes me value them even more. These are truly standout editions a video with Petrik and Anthony exploring the background of his hat goes into them is truly one of the most interesting videos i have ever watched. Thank you so much for creating it, and I will continue to make sure every edition is in my collection. The fact that this is a British fine print company makes it to ven better!

Awesome interview! I sent him an email praising his work a couple weeks ago, I was so impressed. Seriously the best. I put it ahead of my Folio Editions

Yes please less popular series that don't have other limited editions. Also heavy focus on illustrations (either black and white or color)

Anything that receives a Curious King treatment will be stellar! I'm all for this. 😁

I haven’t watched the whole thing yet, but I’m curious as to if they’d do limited runs to lesser known indie books to bring attention to them

We discussed about underrated books getting an offset printing treatment. Good question on indie! Only Wraithmarked and TBB press are making higher end edition of indie books.

Thanks for setting up the interview with Anthony, interesting to hear his vision for his company! I love CK edition books, but they're just way too exclusive (expensive) for me.

@@PetrikLeoI can’t wait for it. CK is my favourite press as their book choices, art style, bindings etc are perfect to my tastes. Thank you to you and Anthony for this great chat, you did a great job, it was so insightful and a joy to watch.

All this talk about artists for books made me think you should do a list of your favorites for a video. Or how you find new artists. No one on booktube really talks about the artists except you so the only ones I know are when you mention them in your videos.

That's on the plan. I tried making that video, but my list is filled with so many amazing artists. I still plan to make a video about it someday! :)
