I fell in love with Nick Bantock’s Griffin and Sabine: An Extraordinary Correspondence. When the book came out back in 1991, I remember seeing it at a local bookstore and picked it up as I wanted to go on a journey and experience something that I had never done before.

You see, Bantock’s book is unique in that it’s not only filled with amazing artwork, but he tells the story of how Griffin and Sabine correspond with each other through letters. Bantock designed the letters and you’re able to pull them out of an envelope and read the words as though you’re taking part in their correspondence yourself.
