Roasting Spuds

Regular price £48.00

This is a wonderful find - from the Golden Heart comics of the 1960s, The speech bubble is original; I've not added my own or changed it. To be honest, I don't really understand it and presented on its own, it's hillarious.

I love the hair cuts – he looks like Dirk Bogarde and she resembles Jackie O. The red stipple works well on his shirt … and the flat red by contrast accentuates her lips. The speech bubble, meanwhile, is extraordinary … but it is the original exchange, as printed in 1962.

These are all original screenprints. An original print is a work of art printed by hand, from a plate, block, stone, or stencil (which is the case here - screenprints are made using screen stencils) that has been created by the artist for the purpose of producing the image.

Handmade screen print on cotton paper.

Signed and numbered out of 200 in pencil by the printer, John Patrick Reynolds.

Standard size: 26cm x 19cm  
Medium size: 48cm x 38cm
Large size: 76cm x 56cm

From a series of teen romance comics called the Golden Heart Love Stories.
