21 x 15cm, 4pp. Printed offset black on (what else) yellow. Programme for various Banana Events held by Anna where she promoted her extended metaphor of 'Bananology': "In a banana peel, Bananology is a process which involves persons in the creation of their own mythology, outside the mainstream mythologies perpetrated by the mass media...." One appropriated image of a banana company publicity stunt and one of a woman in a full body leopard suit, (presumably Anna). Lengthy biography and text by Banana and a list of events in California organised or featuring the artist. Fine.
