Edition The Letter Edged in Black Press, New York 1968. - With light traces of age.
Very costly and elaborately produced publication, lead by William Copley, in an exquisite humorous mixture of surealism and Fluxus. The exact edition number is not known. According to Copley the edition was between approx. 1500 to 2000 portfolios, according to the printer "about 2000" (see Mary Lee Corlett, The Prints of Roy Lichtenstein, New York 1994, p.266). In spite of the number of the edition, this portfolio appears rather seldom.
