The component parts of the druksel were printed separately, one after another.
In fact no print is the same.
Late 1935 or early 1936 Werkman printed a series of his own poems and a series of 19
sjabloondruksels with the intention of making small books. Only very few were actually
made. The 19 prints were sometimes sold separately or in different combinations. |

| The cover with the title “Hot Printing” according to Zuithoff would have been printed in c. 20 copies, but in the Werkman catalogue only a unique complete set in the Stedelijk Museum is described and full page illustrated. (p. 263). In the Zuithoff collection there was a slightly different one. |
