The Journey Begins
Posted on May 28th |
Starting out, the first thing that needed to happen was to find a reliable printer to print these board books exactly like they were originally printed. Fortunately, I have a friend who's a retired publisher and he introduced me to the folks at Oceanic Graphic Printing. Oceanic prints all of their board books in China, so the first thing I wanted to make sure of is that we got documentation from the printer that the books will contain only non-toxic inks and coating that meet U.S. ASTM safety standards. Toddlers chew on these board books! They must be perfectly safe!
Oceanic is sending us the full safety documentation. Also, we are receiving a blank board book from the factory, which I am going to have tested. I will post more on that and the results as we move along.
Book Production Begins
The entire book had to be put back together from scratch, since I no longer had the original layouts. Since I did have the original drawings, I scanned them all in and have now finished laying out all the pages. I have exactly matched the original pages of the book - which is actually a lot harder to do than I thought!
