first published edition. number 185 of 500 copies signed by cage and long. A playful and creative collaboration. The original was invented by the authors sometime in the 1970s and then forgotten. When it was rediscovered, they decided to publish this facsimile using the talents of master silkscreen printer Hiroshi Komanichi. On some plates, as many as 12 screens were used to capture the detail of the original and make the mud as realistic as possible.
