Scope and Contents

Ebel accounted for the text and Zielke for the pictures of this book. Its theme is the word 'tiger' found as a component of German words e.g., Tuntiger, Fertiger. These words are written calligraphically and arranged in both orderly and chaotic lists. The pages are black, yellow, and pink color stock and the words are silkscreened onto them in black and white inks. The book is illustrated with several neo-expressionistic images of a tiger. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
