Collection of 30 issues of the weekend supplement of the newspaper Libération. Sandwich was launched on November 17, 1979. It brought together all the classified ads that had previously been published in the newspaper.

Reports, chronicles, guides, rock news, artistic essays, columns, pornography, in short a fireworks display of all freedoms with the added bonus of a layout to which collaborated with many young avant-garde artists (Philippe Morillon, Bazooka, Elli Medeiros. Marie France, Jenny Bel’Air, Romain Slocombe…)
