Item Description
This is one of just 26 produced as a "Lettered" edition. 14.5x22.5" card stock portfolio cover has 3x4.5" label at center w/"Rock Poster Artists" text and small portrait images, drawn by Rick Jacobi, of Stanley Mouse, Gary Grimshaw (1946-2014), Wes Wilson (1937-2020) and Mark Arminski. Just below and to the right of this, Arminski has boldly signed his name in silver paint pen. Bottom center has handwritten "E/Z" numbering notation (which translates to #5 of the limited run of just 26) and Jacobi signature in silver paint pen. Issued in 1993 for "Detroit's First Joint Show" at the Ubiquity Gallery, portfolio contains total of five posters, ranging in size from 11.25x17.25" to 14x21.5". Smallest poster features repeated design from portfolio label of the four artist portraits (by Jacobi) and has been signed by each of the four artists in pencil, Mouse adding his distinctive mouse sketch along w/his signature. Jacobi has again signed this poster as he provided the art for it. Other posters feature different designs for this show by each of the four featured artists, all four signing each poster in pencil and each is marked w/matching "E/Z" designation in either ink or pencil. Wilson's design includes psychedelic birds and stars; Grimshaw's design features his iconic winged eyeball; Mouse's design features fink-like monster driving hotrod; Arminski's design features two human spines. Again, each of these four are signed by all four of the artists making this an incredibly impressive and extremely limited piece.  All is NM to Mint. From the Mark Arminski Archives and comes with a COA specially designed, signed and remarqued by him.
