Condition
These screenprints are in generally very good to excellent condition. In high raking light, a number of handling creases are visible on the prints and in the margins. These are not immediately apparent, nor do they detract in any way from the overall attractive appearance of this sequence. There is a small tear in the lower margin of the first print of the sequence (A).
Four prints are edition '95/150' (A, B, D, and E). One print is edition '48/150' (C).
