Ruscha is cast in the role of the driver, Blackwell the photographer, and William the thrower. The core of the book is a photographic examination of the wreckage of the typewriter strewn over many square yards, spoofing the methods of an investigator analyzing the demise of an automobile prototype.“ (Engberg & Philpott: Ed Ruscha editions 1959-1999, cat. rais. vol. II, p. 68).
