The poems and 15 lithographs are printed on Moulin Richard de Bas paper. The poems were selected by Rohner who provides a table of contents from labels for each work that perforate a papercard page with vertical placement. Some lithographs span two sides of the unbound pages that generally consist of a folded vertical sheet to give four sides. The images facing the poems are figurative or surreal and depict the theme of the accompanying poem. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
