Beschreibung:

Reykjavik, Dieter Roth 1973. 47 x 33 x 5.5 cm, approx. 1200 pp. Newsprint (original newspapers). Softcover, adhesive binding. Printed by Luzerner Stadtanzeiger. 150 numbered and signed copies. This is 11/150, titled, signed, dated and numbered in blue on the cover. Contains original small paper wrap with cello tape. Printed with drawings and Dieter Roth's address in Iceland. Some toning and edge wear, else a good copy.
Roth regularly placed text interventions in the Anzeiger Stadt Luzern und Umgebung among the paper's usual advertisements. Lines such as 'An airplane it is an evil word' were not appreciated by the readers, so the newspaper cancelled the campaign. In 1973 Dieter Roth published all his 248 aphorisms in Das Tranenmeer.
