The Better Half of dbqp

The Entire Print Run of derek beaulieu's "db" (dbqp # 234, 2 April 2011)
In a newfound effort to revitalize my ancient and tiny micropress, I have finally published a duet of visual poems by derek beaulieu as a single broadside. These are two beautiful and asemic Letraset poems by one of the masters of contemporary visual poetry.

In some way, I see this publication, release in a very limited edition of 61, as a companion piece to derek's monumental "Prose of the Trans-Canada", which was just released by BookThug in an edition of 150 and a massive 16" x 52". (I've already purchased a copy and am now anxiously awaiting it, so I can pay whatever huge sum it will cost me to frame this piece, which itself costs Can$95, which I hate to inform my countrypeople is more than US$95, but well worth it for one of the masterpieces of today's visual poetry).

I'm selling derek's "db" (title by me) for US$2 postpaid, most of which cost will be my mailing costs. I'm open to trades, of course, and will merely be happy to get this work out in the world.

And I'm thinking of releasing a leaflet version sometime in the future too...
