A SELECTION OF ARTEFACTS
From Ralph Steadman's
archive
Most unusual and
unrepeatable.
Steam Press Artefacts |
 |
 Mr. Steadman says:
"Here is a deal of Artefacts for you. It contains
seven items from the Steam Press Archives in nine sets.
They are broadsheets from the 70's and as you can see one
wood block hand printed Christmas Card. There is a picture
by me in most of them save for two where I have written
the poems and I have insisted that the Poet, Carol Ann
Duffy does the drawing."
"The paper used to enclose the seven artefacts is
beautiful and I literally have a ton of it. There were
very few tons made back in '72 by J. Barcham Green of Maidstone
in Kent by hand (see below). It looks very 'andsome indeed.
Deckled edges etc."
These archived sets of seven Artefacts are being offered
at $600 apiece.
