Information printed on verso as issued. The image reproduced on this print is Johns' 1962 lithograph edition "Painting with Two Balls I", (ULAE No. 8; Field No. 8; Sparks No. 8, page 348). This facsimile print was made at and by Universal Limited Art Editions in West Islip, NY under the supervision of the artist Jasper Johns himself. Tatyana Grosman started Telamon Editions Limited in 1970 as a commercial venture of Universal Limited Art Editions. It was closed upon her death in 1982. Among her initial projects was a facsimile catalogue of Jasper Johns prints published by ULAE. The format for the catalogue was 22.5 x 17.5 inches and was to be printed in an edition of 300 on the same paper as the original limited editions prints. A hand-fed offset press was purchased in 1971 to proof and print the project. 13 facsimiles were printed on the hand-fed offset press by Bill Goldston and James V. Smith under the supervision of the artist before 1982 when it was abandoned for the complete catalogue raisonne published in 1993. Other than their size, the paper, color and printing sequence match the original edition. The facsimiles are not signed by the artist and the Telamon Editions Limited seal appears within the images to ensure no confusion with the original editions.
