BINDINGS Composition and lay-out by Jan van Toon of Amsterdam. This publication in the domain of the plastic arts arrived from Holland encased in a can which also serves as the cover for a handsome catalog of avant-garde art in the Netherlands of the early 1970s. The catalog had to be opened with a can opener which left very sharp edges. The publication also came with a bright yellow pillow to further assure its safe arrival after a long journey across the Atlantic. This sort of unique cover quickly garners one attention.
