Interesting facts
What a colophon is. The note at the end of a book recording who made it and how - a printers' convention going back to the first printed books, before title pages existed.
The Biography Service. Eastern Palliative Care ran a volunteer service that recorded the life stories of people in its care and printed them for the family. The biographer was a volunteer, the recording was done at home over months, and the family received the only edition.
