Originally this project was titled Heartland. Then States United. Then Heartland. States United. Heartland. States United. Heartland. And finally...States United. Although i suppose it could also be called "We The People", because when i look at it now, i see faces in Alabama, Illinois, Wisconsin and a few other states

My friend Ray Nichols at Lead Graffiti in Delaware printed these from a copperplate on his Vandercook flatbed press. The paper stock is a beautifully thick slightly off-white paper. When shipped, the print is slowly and carefully rolled within a larger piece of paper, placed securely in a thick protective tube, brought to the post office and priority mailed with delivery confirmation.

Please convo me with any questions you might have...and just in case you wondered, the states are proportional.
Cheers, Gregory
