58 leaves, mostly illustrated with pencil drawings. Artist?s book, a joint work by the Fluxus artist Tomas Schmit, together with Maruta Schmit, and Ludwig Gosewitz. They distributed this phallic-obsessed work under the pseudonyms Regula Grind, Luis de Morales and Erwin Siewin in order not to be prosecuted for pornography. The ph…allic words and phrases, stamped on most of the pages in lower case, "der einphall", "der abphall", "das ist häufig der phall", "besagter phall" and so on, are then illustrated with pencil drawings, in some cases with touches of red pencil or opaque white or with applied scraps of coloured paper; "ein literarischer phall" has a small collage made of yellow glossy coloured paper with the typewritten inscription "phallobstzönales? The picture titles themselves are stamped, mostly as signatures. The books are therefore completely hand-made, the individual copies of the edition therefore differ slightly from one another and are each unique. The book first appeared in an edition of 50 copies in 1966. After the first edition was sold out, the artists produced a second edition the following year in November 1967 in an edition of 30 copies, numbered with the letters A-Z and the special characters Ä, Ö, Ü and ß. This copy is from the second edition. Pink wrappers, with title label pasted to front cover.
