Muttons and Nuts

This is my first smartphone pic/upload. Can't check the quality so I hope all's OK .
It wasn't - now reuploaded in the right orientation from PC :(

These are the final booklets from my printing course and every one of the 60 we set, printed, trimmed, stitched, bound, titled and pressed is different.

'Muttons' and 'nuts' are old printers' slang for pieces of metal without type (generic name: quads) that keep the words apart. Muttons are one em wide and nuts are one en wide - the same width as the letter in question and as em-dashes (used a lot in American printing and by Oxford University Press) and en-dashes (used by everone else).

When our tutor asked what title we wanted for the booklet and someone suggested this we had consensus within 20 seconds - the fastest decision making process I've ever seen.
