Description: "CHEETAH", BY ROBERT BATEMAN, 1976, HAND-SIGNED LIMITED EDITION #203/500, 31-3/4 x 24-1/2" PHOTO LITHOGRAPH, WITH A 27-1/4 x 20-1/2" IMAGE AREA, IN VERY NEARLY MINT CONDITION (with only a bit of very light, barely visible, yellowish age spotting, in the upper half of the sky, keeping it from being in perfect condition), AND WITH A COPY OF THE ORIGINAL TRYON GALLERY 10/12/1976 PURCHASE ORDER/PURCHASE RECEIPT.Please pardon the glare and slight yellowish tinge from the flash photography. NOTE: UNLIKE THE MUCH LATER "GICLEES ON CANVAS" THAT WERE PRODUCED IN THE LATE 1990s/early 2000s, THIS IS AN ORIGINAL, FIRST-RELEASE PRINT FROM THE ORIGINAL PUBLISHER, TRYON GALLERY, IN 1976. AND SINCE IT WAS NOT PRINTED ON HEAVILY TEXTURED CANVAS, IT'S MUCH SHARPER AND CLEARER THAN THE LATER PRINTS-- AND HAND - SIGNED IN PENCIL, DIRECTLY IN THE LOWER BORDER OF THE PRINT. PART OF THE TRYON GALLEERY SERIES OF LIMITED EDITION ROBERT BATEMAN WILDLIFE PRINTS-- MANY OTHERS OF WHICH WE ALSO CARRY, AS WELL AS THEIR OTHER WILDLIFE AND WESTERN LIMITED EDITION PRINTS.Purchased new from the publisher in 1976 at wholesale, along with several others, never framed or displayed, and stored in our darkened, temperature controlled warehouse since, the print is still in nearly PRISTINE MINT condition, with its Bright, Lustrous, completely UN-faded colors. NOTE: OUR PRINTS, WHILE MAYBE PRICED A BIT HIGHER, HAVE NEVER BEEN FRAMED OR EXPOSED TO LIGHT, HAVING BEEN STORED IN OUR DARKENED WAREHOUSE THE ENTIRE TIME-- OVER FOUR (4) DECADES-- SO, UNLIKE PRINTS OFFERED BY OTHERS, OURS ARE PRISTINE NEW, NEVER FRAMED OR DISPLAYED, IN NEARLY PERFECT MINT CONDITION AND TOTALLY UN-FADED !
