The graphic elements were directed by Andrés Ramón Vázquez and Silvio Baldessar, who also designed the cover. Most of the drawings were taken from the Libro de Objetos Ilustrados (Book of Illustrated Objects), printed in San Luis de Potosi, Mexico, in 1883, others belong to the edition of the Complete Works of Jules Verne illustrated by P. Ferat. The drawing which accompanies the poem No tan alto, is by Guadalupe Posadas. The wife of the poet, Matilde Urrutia, and H. Arce Cabrera collaborated on the selection of these materials. 50 copies were also printed that were not for resale, numbered 1 to 50 and signed by the author.” Original cover.
