Identifier: CC-27336-28038
Scope and Contents

This periodical is one of the most important experimental calligraphic and typographic contributions of the early sixties. The Diensts' redesigned the letters in Allen Ginsberg's poem, "To an Old Post in Peru" so that the A became a triangle, the I an elongated rectangle, and the E three parallel lines. Its signer (Michael Heinze) appears to be its initial owner. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
