Additional notes:
This bean-book is based on illustrations from the "Sprach-Brockhaus - Deutches Wörterbuch für jedermann", Verlag Eberhard Brockhaus, Wiesbaden 1947. Some of the legends and labels of the original have been replaced by the authors (sometimes at random by George Brecht, with the names of beans from the Alison Knowles collection).

The edition has been silk-screen printed on simili-japon by Roel Goussey and hand-bound by Liliane Gérard.
