"The Thirteen Most Wanted Men"
, 1967
Dossier No. 2357 (complete), Exhibition catalogue Gallerie IIeana Sonnabend Paris, offset lithograph (catalogue) with silkscreen (print, not signed as issued) of John Joseph H. The folder (dossier) with printed checklist & criminal rap sheet. Museum Quality. It is said Andy Warhol himself stapled and prepared a very limited number of these. He handed them out to people as they headed into the Gallery to see his famous Thirteen Most Wanted Men exhibition in 1967. These rare prints are authenticated by "two small pin holes at the top left of the print which were originally left there by a staple where it had been attached to other relevant material that made up the catalogue (or dossier)"
Condition:
Excellent- folder shows slight ambering due to age (over 50 years) which is normal. No rips or tears. Inside content (sheets of paper and print) in great condition. The original staple has left a slight mark (see photo) but is considered good as proof of authenticity.
Provenance:
Gallerie IIeana Sonnabend, Paris
VRW Hemphill Collection, Miami
