Emily Martin's Fly Away

Fly Away

Overview

Fly Away by Emily Martin is an artist's book published and copyrighted in 2005 by Emily Martin herself. Emily Martin published many of her earlier books under the publishing company “The Naughty Dog Press” which is her own, as she prints all of her books on a Vandercook SP15 printing press. She works out of Iowa City, Iowa, and seems to work solo, as all marks on the book only indicate her involvement, including the copyright. The University of Pennsylvania’s Kislak Center for Special Collections bought this book directly from the author, making Penn the first owner of the book, which shows as the book seems to lack markings, marginalia, and aging that are most prominent in books that pass through many owners.
