Number two is in its original card postal envelope with stamps and postmarks with illustrated pasted-on address label (with recipient's address inked on) - very rare.

Contains a card title page, a folded 4pp Art Strike Criticism text, a chart titled The Structure and Functions of the Elite Art and the Various Underground Movements, four A4-sized posters, and a sealed polythene bag containing smaller items relating to the Art Strike Story. Issue two contains a card title page, a sheet of texts by Andrej Tisma and Bob Black, three A4 posters, five A5 cards, and a polythene pouch containing ladybird-themed origami. Very good condition.
