A black cardboard box contains the second volume and inner metal book frame. There is the inclusion of the expletives - Juden Vereke, Rouse Juden - the metal boxes are all fundamentally alike with tiny differences and the frame closes with a tie.
The book entitled 'Clepsydra' is contained in an outer material-like wrapper. The black book when opened has an embossed recessed Star of David surrounded by black leaves. The title appears on the cover of the book which has within it a Prologue and Epilogue and contains excerpts from the book 'Clepsydra' by Jean Francoise Steiner of Treblinka.
Each page of the book has 'banners' from which hang destroyed Stars of David and the Colophon which contains the signature of David Anderson's son and assistant Charles Anderson. The artist statement is included in which he says that he is now creating a Series of Ten Books. He also gives a description of the contents of the handmade crafted paper created for this book. The book was completed in March 1993. The paper used in the book was handmade from Pacific Northwest hard woods, pure cotton pulp and numerous plant fibers.
