This book, which is a typographical tour de force, was the product of 10 students, the translator, Elmer Peterson, and the instructor, James Trissel. The type faces are of varied size, dimensions and spill across the page together with visual images. In the colophon, Trissel comments that "the product resembled nothing less than that of an exquisite corpse." The pages were composed as a collage and then printed on a Vandercook IV from polymer plates on Arches cover paper. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
