"By Geza Perneczky with one's own hand"
is on the first page while the rubber stamped address
of Perneczky is on the back cover.
A color photograph of the 19th volume

"The Story of the Colourful Ribbons is a series of books
designed not the same as Gutenberg".
The publication documents the bookmaking project
‘The Story of the Colourful Ribbons’ which consisted
of a series of 24 conceptual book objects made from wood,
cardboard and ribbons, created from 1987 to 1994.
Instead of text various ribbons are threaded through the book
in different rhytmic patterns and structures, thus spinning a kind of story.
