Accompanying Chanccani Quipu is a full-color signed drawing inserted into a pamphlet entitled Instruction Manual & Orientation to Various Meanings"--Publisher description., " ... produced and published by Granary Books in an edition of 32 copies each made entirely by hand.

The work is housed in a hand-stenciled box (18 1/2 x 18 1/4 x 4 inches) made by Susan Mills. Silicon Gallery Fine Art Prints in Philadelphia printed the drawing and the pamphlet in full-color. Cecilia Vicuña and Jerome Rothenberg signed the edition of 32 numbered copies"--Publisher description., and 10/32. Autographs of Cecilia Vicuña and Jerome Rothenberg. In box as issued.
