About the artwork Twenty-four issues of the underground magazine PUSS were published in 1968–1974. At the height of its popularity, its edition was around 10,000 copies, each magazine comprising just over twenty pages. PUSS delivered provocative political satire with anarchist tendencies – and quite a bit of nudity. It soon proved impossible to distribute it through regular newsagents, and street vendors were instead used. In addition to its founder and editor in chief Lars Hillersberg, the nebulous editorial team consisted of Leif Katz, Lena Svedberg, Åke Holmqvist, Karl-Erik Liljeros, Carl Johan De Geer, Ulf Rahmberg, Karin Frostenson, Christer Themptander and Arne Svensson, along with many other contributors over the years.
