The mezzotints, composed of five objects of different periods and continents, fold out to form a unity of similar volumes and helixes. The mezzotints, as well as the screenprints on the wrappers, slip cases, and clamshell boxes, are printed by the artist. Mark Lintott printed the letterpress, handset in Vendôme romain, on an Albion press.
The marbled end papers are by Mark Lintott and Judith Rothchild.
The first ten copies, the deluxe edition, are presented in clamshell boxes. They contain an additional mezzotint exclusively printed in ten copies and a poem in the hand of the author. The first five also contain one of the original copper plates.
The books numbered 11/50 à 50/50 are presented in slipcases.
