27 x 21cm, two sheets 2pp and 1pp respectfully. The second issue of the Lettrist International, published in February 1953, at thet time when the group had left Isou's main grouping and had added a number of new adherents such as Sarah Abouaf, Serge Berna, P. J. Berlé, J.-L. Brau, Leibé Midou Dahou, Guy-Ernest Debord, Linda, Françoise Lejare, Jean-Michel Mension, Eliane Papaï, and Gil J. Wolman all of whom signed the manifesto published herein. The publications also has texts by Debord, Wolman, and Jean-Michel Mension, and press cuttings concerning the contentious "Chaplin affair".

Both sheets have a  red stamp of the Lettrist International . This publication is usually found as a single sheet but here we include the far rarer second sheet with an extract of the public response of the International Letteristes to Chaplain's visit and their opposition to it and Isou's support.

The first sheet is a little browned but the second is far lighter. Both are VG+. Very scarce especially as two sheets.

22.8 x 17.9cm, 286pp. Original wrappers with a cover design by Gabriel Pomerand. Essentially the manifesto and theoretical basis for all Letteriste and Situationist cinema. Texts include "Esthétique du cinéma" by Isidore Isou, "Cinéma nucléaire" by Marc'O, "Hurlements en faveur de Sade" by  G. E. (Guy) Debord, "Tambours du jugement premier" by Dufrêne, "La légende cruelle" by Gabriel Pomerand, "L'Anticoncept" by Wolman and shorter articles by Y. du Luart, Serge Berna, Poucette, Monique Geoffroy.The plates show portraits of Isou, Poucette, Pomerand, Wolman, Berna, Y. du Luart,  M. Geoffroy. Berréby and the famous first published image of Debord looking louche.

Minor wear to edges and spine with minor tears. Internally pages are browned (as always). The cover is in excellent condition with no fading as the book has been kept in a glassine envelope. The book was lent to the filmmaker Christian Jamicot by Gil Wolman and on the book's return Jamicot has left a signed note to Wolman in ink thanking him on the glassine envelope. A correspondence copy and in much better condition than usually found. The glassine envelope is somewhat torn but still protects the book.
