Cowboy, Poet, Outlaw, and Madman, is a volume of Val Kilmer’s selected poems written between 1987 and 2020.
The four personas – as strong as the title suggests – require typefaces that can hold up: Saracen from Hoefler & Co., Haltrix from Blackletra, Tripper from Underware, and Schick Toikka’s Chap for titling and text. Evert Bloemsma’s sans serif FF Balance takes a supporting role.
Cloth bound, foil stamped with matching teal painted edges, this handsome book is printed in a single shade of olive green throughout. The book was designed by Strick & Williams and produced by A24.
