Description

In 1991, the artist and printer Walter Hamady (1940–2019) gave Terry Belanger four copies of Gabberjab 6—each elaborately inscribed to him. This copy contains numerous messages to his bibliophilic friend. Hamady inscribed the first leaf and the verso of the leaf facing the half-title; he added an inscribed piece of collage to the book’s inside upper cover; and he wrote a message to Belanger on the inside of the front pastedown (not pasted down in this case). He inscribed its end: “Signed Again For Terry Belanger this sunny | 21 X 91 at 12:15 exactly—a loud two | engine airplane flying NW—Walter | Samuel Semi-Hittite Haatoum Hamady.”
