DR Books WEB 2011 annotation: With 10 leaves, screenprinted, (various colors) onto mint green vellum and railroad board covers yellow plasti-coil spiral binding; 19-1/2x14-1/2in; theme: single works with an image: "beat, punch, nail, cuff, sock, box, blow, knock, lick"; this peridocal is now known as "DUZ" (changed in 1991) was created by Sally Alatalo. Known as a "montage of visual and written signs: text, stories, photographs, drawings, and objects as varied as disposable razors. The reading of these layers of information is associative. Juxtaposition of source material, often humorous or odd, plays a big part in the magazine's production and intent. Married to the technology of printing and is influenced by off-beat design." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
