decemberists dictionary


It's been a number of months now since I made this dictionary of Decemberists' words for a friend. I kept putting off posting it until I knew it had reached him in New York, and then I got distracted. I made it this summer while I was fiddling around with Adobe InDesign. The Decemberists theme was a good excuse to use tons of over-the-top fonts, and it was a fun way to practice the software. It would be fun to case it in someday (that is, "cover" it with a bookboard and bookcloth cover or case), though it's really only pamphlet sized.

  1. This is one of the best ideas I have ever seen. I get more out of their songs even after only reading the words from your pictures. I can't even tell you how bad I would like one. Is there anyway you could mail me one? Or perhaps if its easier email me one??? Please?

  2. Hi George, I would email you about getting a copy, but your profile is blank! Email me at naomi dot bardoff at gmail dot com and we can discuss.
