The text is typewritten and reproduced by mimeograph on off-white paper. Like many of these early Vigía publications, the condition of the stencils and ink used leaves much to be desired, and some words are difficult to read. It is the first publication described in the Vigía bibliography (‘Andar sobre la Luz’, Vigía 2006) as a book rather than a plaquette. It really does have a completely atypical appearance amongst Vigía’s publications: on the cover there is a photograph with the titles incorporated into the design, without any collage whatsoever. It is a design much closer to that of standard books, from which Vigía would increasingly move away. A print run of 300 copies, this one unnumbered. WorldCat lists numerous copies of the second edition (Ed. Matanzas 2002), but of this first edition, only one.
