George Segal; Producer: Cook Laboratories, Norwalk, Conn.; Printer: Styria Studio, New York copyright 1973 by George Segal; Publisher: Experiments in Art and Technology, Inc. (E.A.T.), New York

Part of a multi-artist portfolio project, George Segal's 33 RPM vinyl record and sleeve documents the artist's personal memories of the influential avant-garde artist Marcel Duchamp, who died in 1968. Segal's admiration for Duchamp was returned by the older artist, who observed that "With Segal, it's not a matter of the found object, it's the chosen object."
