I'm glad to see this again. It's been in suspended animation for ten years or so. I like it.

I have always thought this was a very cool ink.

I'd love to see one with the paper (cardboard?) stuff around it that made it a functional calendar. Always one of my favorite inks, because it's odd shaped and because it's complicated. Just a fun piece.
