Eleven pieces of ephemera representing the various community and publication efforts by some of Cuba's most prominent presses for artist's books: Casa de Ediciones Cuadernos, Ediciones El Fortín, Ediciones Vigía, and Ediciones Matanzas. Included are: 1) a small pop-up by Cuadernos; 2) a book of ten Cuban cocktails by Cuadernos; 3) a memorial card for Digdora Alonso by El Fortín; 4) an invitation to a memorial gathering for Alonso by El Fortín; 5) a notice for the 2010 Festival de las Ediciones Vigía; 6) an invitation to the debut of a Vigía production by Dolores Maria Ximeno; 7) an invitation to a debut of a Vigía publication of José White's musical work, with quintet accompaniment; 8) a program of events for Vigía's 30th anniversary; 9) an advertisement for book fair in Matanzas; 10) a pamphlet in homage to the poet Nancy Morejón; and 11) a tote bag for the XXXIII Festival Mejunje Teatral. All materials fine or near fine, and an intriguing window into the 21st century iterations of Cuban bibliophilia.
