Found in 7 Collections and/or Records:
L'Homme de Parole, 1997
The book represents a man's body with a white, plastic spiral spine, a face and hair made of cut, smaller spiral spine material, a heart shaped heart printed with "je t'aime," and appropriately shaped booklets for the arms, abdomen, legs and penis. Crombie wrote the Sackners that these book objects were too difficult to transport and make so that none of the editions were completed as stated in the colophon. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
Neither...Nor..., 1989
Theme deals with the evolution of fish to fowl. Owing to the printing process, no two copies are completely alike. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
Only Connect, 1984
The book is bound into a folder in four sections so that the pages may be turned in random order thereby constantly changing the story. This format is the same as the booklets with spiral spines on all borders published by Kickshaws. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
Proofs , 1991
The pages are "saturated" with proofs of "discarded titles, rejected illustrations, botched typographics" from an abandoned book, "Sic Transport." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
Willy Nilly , 2003
Each facing page has the words, "Tock Tick" in the upper outer corners and "Dong Ding" in the lower inner corners. The Center of each page consists of a single word surrounded by a rectangle of closely packed printing ornaments. For example on two sets of successive pages, the text reads, "GO HOME" and "ABROAD WIN." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
