Provenance: The collection of Davis Pratt, Curator of Photographs, Fogg Museum, Harvard University; then by descent to the current private collection. N.B. The Sheehan catalogue raisonné entry 39 discusses various editions of the 1967 Love. This entry mentions that an edition was printed to the edges of the sheet and measures 34 x 34 inches, but does not mention a numbered edition of 100 for this version. Estimate $2,500-3,500 There is a small stain to the verso near its upper edge. There are no further issues to report, but the images further illustrate the damage to corners and rubs to edges. Items may have wear and tear, imperfections, or the effects of aging. Any condition statement given, as a courtesy to a client, is only an opinion and should not be treated as a statement of fact.
