Hugnet had joined the Surrealists by 1932 and the collages on the right-hand pages centered around nude images cut out of Paris Magazine rehearse typical Surrealist themes. The cover by Marcel Duchamp spells out the title in letters containing the names of a whole Surrealist pantheon including Sade Freud Rimbaud Paracelsus Swift Heraclitus Roussel Chaplin Jarry Uccello and Saint-Juste and also a Man Ray photograph of DuChamp's assisted readymade 'Why Not Sneeze Rrose Sélavy' consisting of 152 marble cubes the size of sugar cubes a thermometer and a cuttlebone inside a small cage" Roth 101 p.92.
