29 x 19.5 cm. 49 pages. With 33 original woodcuts, some in color, by Jürgen Wölbing. Original blue morocco binding with spine and cover titles and a light blue cover vignette. In original slipcase. 24th printing by Bear Press, one of 25 copies of the special edition, to which an additional color woodcut was added. The book was handbound by Hans-Peter Geiseler, Berlin. Due to adverse circumstances and the artist's death, the book could only be published now. Bettina Rulf engraved Jürgen Wölbing's preparatory drawings in two colors in acrylic, which is why the illustrations are a collaborative effort. The imprint is signed by Bettina Rulf. Immaculately preserved.
