INFO:

This book was produced on a limited edition run, to showcase a range of hand-crafted products that had been exclusively commissioned by Pedlars – by some of the most iconic and skilled brands in Great Britain.

We worked with the poet, performer and writer Ross Sutherland to devise a set of graphic slogans that were inspired by both the products themselves, and by the spirit of collaboration that created them. The result was a series of composite quotes that were cut-n-pasted from historical figures, such as Friedrich Nietzsche, Robert Louis Stevenson, Dorothy Parker and more.

The book is side-stitched in Pedlars orange and printed on heavyweight paper throughout.

TESTIMONIAL:

We first met the guys from Mercy at our Farm Shop. They had answered an online ad we’d placed; we were looking for two new full-time graphics people. They made a compelling case for themselves on paper; they’d done all kinds of interesting things and -on meeting them- we were instantly taken by their verve and imagination. Our brief was pretty demanding and we met them a couple more times before we all took the plunge and started working together. From our first contact we knew that they were fizzing with ideas, but we were initially a little sceptical about whether they could deliver our significant work load on time and on budget and in perfect condition. We needn’t have worried. Mercy have been superb on every level. We want to work with them forever.
