I wanted to share with you my latest and greatest acquisition.
The condition of this print is amazing. The corners are still very sharp and the paper feels crisp. It's as near mint as possible. I bought this from a former employee of Alternate Graphics back in 1993 who got it directly from Shep as it came off the press.
Thanks everyone. I was at the right place at the right time with the right amount of cash.
And the print has been sitting in a flat file for the last couple decades now, so it's in pristine condition. When I scored a Van few weeks ago I thought that was going to be my last grail, but this popped up and I had to snatch it. Feel pretty durn lucky.

Fantastic pick up. To pick up the print in that kind of shape is crazy. Where on earth did you score Van? Do you mind posting a pic of it? I have never seen one for sale.

Here you go.
It's not in the best shape, but a Van is a Van.

Most of the damage is on the back. The paper is yellowing and there are dark round spots.
it looks great to me. The spots prob relate to acid damage and can prob be fixed. You scored two of my top five which is likely two more than I will get. Excellent scores. Thanks for the pics, I enjoyed them.
