The sole issue published, though claiming to be the 4th issue of Annie Sprinkle’s“newsletter devoted to piss art. ”Designed by Willem de Ridder (1939-2022), the work is heavily illustrated with photographs and drawings of “piss art,” and includes contributions from Marco Vassi; Niko Tong; John Reilly; Charles Gatewood; Spider Webb; Günter Brus; and others. This rare artists’ publication was printed by Maximilian Leblovic and Susan Block, the publishers of Love(“America’s First Reader Written Magazine”),L.A. Star, Hate, Finger and God. They named their fictitious imprints responsible for this work after the Italian philosopher, Gaetano Filangieri, known for his arguments in support of free trade, and Marcel Duchamp’s readymade sculpture of a urinal signed “R. Mutt”.

An early publication from the artist and performer, produced the same year as Deep InsideAnnie Sprinkle, her breakout pornographic film. Though not recorded as such in scholarship,Sprinkle has confirmed to us that this was the sole issue published.
