The press was randomly fed with colored paper, so once bound each copy of the two volumes book has a unique color sequence. Since it turned out that this paper stock was no longer being produced, after choosing the colors, the quantity of each color was determined by the amount of paper left in stock. The vertical text on the spines of the two volumes work both on their own and side by side.
