Splendid copy of this issue from the German artist collaboration, issued the same year that Gruppe Spur became the German branch of the Situationist International. They were quickly ejected the following year, the Central Council of the SI explaining that "the fractional activity of this group is based on a systematic misunderstanding of situationist theses; and that the members of this group have perfectly disregarded the discipline of the S.I. in order to 'arrive' as artists" (Internationale Situationniste #8, 1963).
