Note

• Cover title.
• A song and a poem bound accordion style. When folded out, two accordion folds each have a gathering of 3-4 pages adhered to their center. First gathering is a song written by Silvio Rodríguez; second is a poem by Víctor Casaus. Reproductions of drawings by Elizabeth Valero decorate respective title pages for each book section and the colophon information, which appears on the recto of the accordion folds. Front and back covers are covered with a burlap mesh hand-painted a burnt orange color and overlaid with cut-out illustrations. The Front cover has cut-outs with text of title and both authors name, a man with flowing hair that extends beyond left and right sides of cover, overlapping to fit into enclosure pockets on back. Some white paint has been applied to the figure and hair. A guiltar cut-out on cream colored paper overlaps the body of the figure on the front cover. The back cover shows the drawing together of the hair that extended off of both sides of the front cover, and hair dips down into a botanical illustration near bottom of back cover. Next to it is an illustration (with some hand coloring) of the Ediciones Vigía logo of a lamp along with text of the collection name. A square of loose thick white paper is set between the front cover and first accordion fold, which depicts a computer printed illustration of a bee holding a guitar without strings. Its recto has a torn panel of cardboard glued on with text that attributes the illustration to author Sivio Rodríguez.
