This album is a collection of six folded leaves that contain   the name and a poem (previously never published ) by six poets. The name of the poet has each his own colour, that is reflected in the copper etchings. Staritsky’s signature is also in the same colour. The six poems are by (1) Robert Guiette in black, (2) Franz Hellens in blue, (3) Philippe Jones in brown, (4) Marcel Thiry in green, (5) Edmond Vandercammen in blue, and (6) Fernand Verhesen in orange. Added is a folded leaf with the imprint. The cover is a handmade piece of Auvergne paper by Richard de Bas, ornated with a collage by Staritsky.
