About This Item
York: Rizla Limited, 1986. First Edition Thus. Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. Elephant Folio - over 15" - 23" tall. N/a. A full set of 10 full sized poster sized prints reproduced in beautiful facsimile in 1986 from 'an original set of 16 master copies found in York, England, in 1986. These prints or posters are stunningly reproduced in rich colour and depth. This collection is numbered 147 of 750 and has the accompanying certificate. These posters have been reproduced in wonderful colour. Each plate or poster with loose fitting tissue-guard to protect it. So the full set of 10 plates/posters loosely inserted into a large porfolio bound in half burgundy leatherette (just might be leather) with marbled-paper covered boards. The clip 'tie' is however burgundy leather with brass button. The whole of this housed in original protective card clamshell type box with sunken compartment for the portfolio/book to lay in. Some spotting to the key. Much less very scattered spotting to some tissue-guards. Still less spotting to the prints - very minor - most notable to the margins of the first print. The card clamshell box with ties has rubbing to it a few tears to the margins and some indentations, but it has done its job well by keeping the contents in very good condition.
