Description:
"Pages comprised of plates of phrases, photos, drawings and cartoons that Debord cut out of other works, and then pasted up in a randomly suggestive manner. Debord then had ... the Danish artist Asger Jorn (1914-1973), taint these 'prefabricated elements' with paint. The colors suggest possible readings of the phrases or simply lend a mood to the images. These plates were then bound in sand-paper to destroy any other books it came into contact with--Debord calls them an anti-book ... The book was published at Jorn's expense and given away as a sumptuous gift to friends"--Bracken, L. Guy Debord, p. 34-35., Sandpaper jacket wrapped in thin paper, turned inside out, bearing the name and address of the Danish publisher, Rosenkilde og Bagger. "Asger Jorn" written in manuscript on front wrapper., and This book was published in December 1958. Cf. Textes et documents situationnistes 1957-1960, p. 96.
