Almost Perfect Press





Almost Perfect Press

Pennsylvania

Almost Perfect Press is a micro-publisher specializing in hand-bound, small-batch publications featuring emerging writers and artists, and other short texts. My business model is anti-capitalist and community-driven. I aim to present books as neither content not commodity, but as handmade objects created with mindful intention and care. All of my books are entirely hand-bound. From sewing to trimming, I don’t use any industrial machinery or processes. The signature book from Almost Perfect is an 8.5 x 5.25 in. chapbook, with about 40 pages, colored endpapers and a kraft cover.
