First Edition. First edition of this collaborative public art project consisting of forty paper placemats, each featuring a different photograph, illustration, or story having to do with the idea of "place." Contents include photographs by Michael Northrup and Lars Tunbjörk, illustrations by Paul Marlow and Leanne Shapton, and fiction by Amie Barrodale and Gilbert Sorrentino, among others.

Paper Placemats would be reissued in 2007; copies of this first edition are uncommon. A fine example. Oblong volume, perfect-bound, measuring 9.75 x 13 inches: 40 leaves. Original glossy white wrappers lettered in black, corners rounded. Leaves printed recto only, many in color.…
