Announcing The Sale Of The Neil Salkind Print Collection
Sadly, one of our best and favorite clients has passed away. Professor Salkind was so kind and supportive throughout the years of collecting Crumb artwork. His wife, who is selling their beautiful Edwardian home, has asked me to resell their prints and I am happy to do so. All the prints from the Salkind's collection have been "museum quality" framed with UV protected glass. This is an excellent opportunity to purchase Crumb prints from sold out editions that have been beautifully "floated" and framed. They're all in mint condition with special certificate of authenticity pockets on the back of each frame.

Head Comix Framed Serigraph Print
The solid wood frame, which is painted black, is 25.5 x 33.5 inches. The actual print, on cream archival paper, is on 22 x 30 inch paper. The print, which is floated on top of a white background, is numbered, signed and dated (2001) by Crumb. This is print number 189/200. There was no certificate of authenticity offered with this edition. Rather, there is an indicia printed at the bottom of the print in very fine, light brown ink. It's too light as far as I'm concerned! I wish I would have used a darker ink. But, with a magnifying lens and some extra light, it becomes easy to read. 18 colors were used to create this edition. On the back of the frame are two stickers, one identifying the framer and the other specifying what type of UV Protected glass was used. The frame, print and glass are in mint condition.
