Boston-born Taylor R. Campbell was obviously intrigued by the now cult 1967 British television show The Prisoner, starring Patrick McGoohan. His colourfully bound, printed, and illustrated Resigned contains dialogue between Number Six (McGoohan) and Number Two, the Village administrator acting as a monitoring agent for an unseen ‘Number One’. Campbell won the 2012 Book Arts Grand Prize of $500 for this work, a mix of polymer plate printing and traditional letterpress.
