Reviews & Comments:

1. Jurgen Wegner, “The Pania Press.” Brandywine Bookman’s Repository for Australia & New Zealand #30 (January 2011): 9-10:
   

   
   From the illustrations provided on the “blog” the texts seem professional enough but the cover designs are really delightful. Each one is an experiment in design and production. I especially like the use of such things as sewing machine stitching not only as part of the design but as a means of creating whole illustrations*. An example of the latter is in the covers for Jack Ross’ Love in wartime. Produced in a limited edition of 30 signed copies, each of the 10 specials has its own sewn illustration from cup and saucer to flower pot motif ...
   
   * Ever since my own experimental portfolio of P.J. Proudhon’s What is government (Sydney : Blackdawn Press, 1986) which used a ripped and torn collage of papers, tickets, forms, &c, and sewing machine stitching for illustrations.
