Description: THE WHO “FACE DANCES” 1981 RARE ART PRINT Inscribed ‘Peter Blake’ bottom right and ‘260/300’ at the bottom left. A Lithograph, printed at Trademasters, 8 7/8”×10”. ***This print was editioned to be given away at the launching party for the album of the same title by The Who. The idea had arisen when Blake met Pete Townshend in America and was commissioned to design the album cover. The members of the group were to be photographed and then painted by sixteen different artists. The portraits, reading from left to right, are by: Pete Townshend: Bill Jacklin, Tom Phillips, Colin Self and Richard Hamilton Roger Daltrey: Michael Andrews, Allen Jones, David Inshaw and David Hockney John Entwistle: Clive Barker, R. B. Kitaj, Howard Hodgkin and Patrick Caulfield Kenney Jones: Peter Blake, Joe Tilson, Patrick Procktor and David Tindle. Besides this edition and the album cover itself an unnumbered poster edition was issued with the album. The photo-lithograph was made from the original collage assembled by Blake…only 300 numbered prints were made, making this piece quite valuable. This is print #260 of the 300 made. ***This print is in SUPERB CONDITION. It is essentially MINT except for a very small double dimple at the very bottom right edge—See Photo. If framed, this would not even be visible. —->I owned a Collector’s Record Store from 1973 on, and this Art Print was given to me personally by the MCA Promo Rep back in 1981.<—- Questions?
