Artist: Saul Bass
Important Added Info: The following information about the Saul Bass silkscreens we are offering comes to us from longtime collector/dealer Dan Strebin, who was hired by Bass' family to evaluate his posters after his passing: "Frustrated by film studio alterations to his film poster designs, graphic artist Saul Bass chose to commission silkscreen prints of the purest unadulterated form of his designs, for his own use only, not for sale, and not for the film studios.

For the first 10-15 years he had just 50 printed of each(plus 5 as possible rejects from screening error or other defects) which he would submit to graphic design competitions and publications, for museums like the MOMA in New York and the collection of the arts college he attended, and occasionally gift to people he worked for or with.

In the 1970's Bass realized that he was running out of many of the earlier titles, indicating to him that 50 each was not enough of these, and though there is no evidence to believe he had earlier titles reprinted. He then changed all future printings, such as 'Such Good Friends' and 'The Shining' to 150 each, still only for his own personal business use, never to sell as a limited edition print.

These are all hand-pulled serigraphs which were printed at Bass's commission by the Art Krebs Studio in Los Angeles, just around the corner from Bass's design studio. Krebs was the screen-printer of choice for a number of significant fine artists including Ed Ruscha.

Especially interesting are the designs which the film studio rejected, which now exist only in the form of Bass's own silkscreens, such as 'Seconds', a design so brilliant that director John Frankenheimer kept one of this silkscreen on his office wall until the day he died. For anyone passionate about Saul Bass's contribution to film poster design, these silkscreens are the purest versions of his original concepts."

Condition: very good to fine. There are some very minor scuff marks and creases scattered throughout the poster, but they are truly not very noticeable or distracting, and the poster will display quite nicely!
