Jack Pierson is literally made up from a collection of previous publications by the eponymous American. This book reproduces them (some already out of circulation) page for page, stacked together end to end in one book. There is a ‘new’ book by IMMA included at the end of the sequence. As all of the original books are different sizes — from small passport-sized booklets to A4 to tabloid newsprint — and as all of them are reproduced actual size, those that are larger than this book are cropped, whilst those smaller sit within the page.
